Prepare all the ingredients by dicing the onion, garlic, and green peppers, and dicing the meat into medium-sized pieces.

Heat the pot without oil, then add the oil and the meat, sautéing at high heat.

When the meat juices come out, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the water evaporates (about 30 minutes).

Add the butter, onion, garlic, and green peppers, and sauté for another 8-10 minutes.

Add the tomato paste and stir in.

Add the grated tomatoes or puree and roast for a further 2 minutes.

Add hot water and bay leaves, stirring occasionally, and cook over low-medium heat for about 48 minutes.

Shortly before the end of the cooking time, remove the bay leaves and season with salt and pepper.

If necessary, add hot water and continue simmering until a thick, flavorful sauce forms and the meat is very tender.

Peel the potatoes, cut them into large cubes, and fry them in oil as a side dish. Serve half in the pot and the other half with the meat.
