Brazilian beef
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Brazilian beef, first of all, refers to the type of meat. In Brazil itself, there are many varieties, due to the different types of cattle. The most common are zebu and taurus. While zebu produces tougher meat, taurus resembles the beef we are accustomed to. The latter type is more commonly found here. Of course, Brazilian beef is not a cheap option. However, for this recipe, you can always use regular beef. Use pitted olives, and if tomatoes are not available, simply use tomato paste. Serve hot.
