Rub the diced beef with half of the salt and the black pepper.
Sear the beef in batches in vegetable oil for 8 minutes.
Soften the onion and garlic in the same pot for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato puree, beef stock, red pepper flakes, and seared beef, then cook over low heat for 60 minutes.
Cut the potatoes and carrots into large cubes, add them to the pot, and cook for 18 minutes.
Add the kapia pepper, green pepper, green olives, liver spread, and remaining salt.
Cook the caldereta for 12 minutes, until the sauce thickens, and serve hot.
💡 Tip: If liver spread is unavailable, mash a small amount of chicken liver and use it; adding only cream does not give caldereta its distinctive body.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve caldereta hot with plain rice, cucumber pickles, and cold sparkling water instead of ayran if desired.
