Sopa a la Criolla

Recipe from: Betty Gibson

1 pound. beef
3 potatoes, cut like French fries
1 pkg. fine noodles
1 teaspoon. oregano, not ground
1 tablespoon. pepper
Achiote
1 tomato, cut finely
1 cup oil
1 tablespoon. cominos
½ teaspoon. salt
4 eggs
Slice of toast per serving
1 small can tomato paste
3 or 4 onions, chopped fine
1 can evaporated milk
1 tablespoon. fresh garlic, ground
1 whole hot red pepper

Boil 10 cups water with red pepper. Cut raw meat into ¼-inch cubes. Mix with salt, garlic, cominos, pepper; let stand.

Mix oil, achiote, tomato, tomato paste, and onions; let stand for a bit. Then cook slowly, adding meat, and stirring constantly. Crumble in oregano. When meat is done, add meat sauce and potatoes to the boiling water, after removing the red pepper. Cook until potatoes are done, at least 10 minutes. Add eggs. Beat with fork first, and add to the water, constantly stirring the water. Slowly add milk while stirring. Soup may be simmered slowly for a short time. Remove crusts from bread, toast. Serve with slice of toast, floating on the soup.
