Caldereta with Cheese Magic Sauce. Beef Caldereta gets an extra boost of cheesy to enliven meal time with your loved ones.

Beef Kaldereta is a popular Filipino dish that is served during parties and holidays. It traditionally uses goat meat as the main ingredient but beef, chicken or pork may be used instead. Tomato sauce, onion, liver spread, bell pepper and cheese are the usual secondary ingredients used. In this recipe, beef was used and carrot, green peas and potato are added to the usual vegetables used. The beef was first marinated and then browned before being slowly cooked in a tomato sauce mixture. Liver spread was used to thicken as well as flavor the sauce. 

This Beef Kaldereta dish was so good and delicious. Furthermore, the meat was so tender and full of flavor. My family and I enjoyed this wonderful dish for lunch on Sunday.  We took some to a dear friend who was not feeling well lately.  I was hoping this appetizing dish would cheer him up.  And I am glad it did!
