Prepare the beef by cutting it into pieces.

Cook the beef in a pot with bay leaves, tomato, cilantro, onion, garlic, and a little water until tender, covered to steam.

While the beef cooks, chop cilantro, onion, and cabbage for the topping.

Mix the chopped cilantro, onion, and cabbage in a bowl, adding lime and salt to taste.

Optionally, add chopped carrots to the vegetable mix.

Once the beef is tender, prepare the tortillas by hand and warm them in some fat or juice from the beef.

Assemble the tacos by placing the cooked beef on the tortilla.

Top the beef with the chopped vegetable mixture.

Add fried onions on top if desired, and serve with a tomato sauce made with tomatoes, onion, chili, and bay leaves.
