Boil approximately 1 liter of water in a pot.

Add half a bell pepper, half an onion, oregano leaves, and 3 cloves of garlic to the boiling water.

Add the cleaned beef tripe to the pot and cook for about 40 minutes until tender, adding salt to taste.

While the tripe is cooking, peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes.

Prepare a sauté with chopped onions, bell pepper, and tomato in a separate pan.

Add achiote to the sauté and cook until fragrant.

Once the tripe is tender, remove it from the pot and chop it into small pieces.

Add the sautéed vegetables to the pot with the tripe, along with the potatoes and a bit of water.

In a blender, liquefy the peanut butter with some water and add it to the pot.

Stir everything together and let it cook until the potatoes are tender, adding more water if necessary.

Finish with lime juice and chopped herbs before serving.
