    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the beef into large chunks, then place it in a pot with cold water, onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Simmer over low heat for 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.

    2

    Meanwhile, prepare the salsa verde: dry-roast the tomatillos and jalapeño peppers in a skillet until softened and slightly charred.

    3

    Place the roasted tomatillos and peppers in a blender. Add fresh cilantro, one clove of garlic, a pinch of salt, and the juice of a little lime. Blend until smooth.

    4

    Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and shred it with two forks.

    5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet until pliable.

    6

    Fill the tortillas with the shredded beef, then spoon the salsa verde over the top.

    7

    Garnish with fresh cilantro, squeeze lime juice over, and serve immediately!
