Beef Morcon has been a favorite dish during special occasions. I like morcon because it is delicious and all the ingredients blends well into a unified flavor that makes my palate happy. It goes well with or without rice, and we can always have it even if there are no special occasion.
I understand that there are such dishes dubbed as fiesta food, holiday food, and special food. These are mostly prepared during the holidays, fiestas, and during special events. Beef Morcon is one of these foods, but I think that we should not be limited by the idea — yes, we enjoy beef morcon anytime of the year. This simplified recipe (which is another version) will be able to help.
As I have mentioned in my previous post, my mom recently came here in Illinois to visit. She was the ultimate cook in the family and I got my interest in cooking because of her. Since I missed her cooking so much, I had her rule my kitchen for the time being so that I can sample the different dishes that I have been longing for — and her beef morcon is one them.
This beef morcon recipe makes use of our flank steak marinade. This is a very tasty concoction that adds flavor to the beef. You can also use the marinade for steaks and other meats for grilling.
There is no special occasion today, but we are having beef morcon. Well, I guess that everyday is a special event that most of us neglect. Let’s enjoy life with our family. Cheers to good food!
