About Cazuela de Vacuno

Cazuela de Vacuno is a central Chilean version of the country's meat-and-vegetable broth stew. This profile follows Chile Travel's beef recipe and names its style rather than treating it as the single national formula among northern and southern variations.

Bone-in beef makes a deeply savoury broth, sweetened by squash, corn, carrot and onion. Potato and rice add mellow starchiness, while oregano, garlic, celery and pepper keep the flavour aromatic and fresh.

Each bowl contains a substantial piece of beef, a whole potato and large pieces of squash and corn in clear golden-brown broth. Rice and smaller vegetables settle around them, giving the soup a hearty but not thickened texture.
