What is beef caldereta? Describe 'beef caldereta' in a 1 paragraph but in your own words
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: Beef Kaldereta (or Caldereta) is a Filipino spicy tomato-based beef stew loved by many Filipinos. This spicy dish is commonly served on holidays and special occasions but believe me, there is no need to wait for a special event to enjoy this classic Filipino dish. Traditionally, Caldereta is prepared using goat meat. But since it is rather difficult to come by, I opted to cook it with the more easily available meat…beef.  Beef is actually the more preferred meat by many as goat meat can be an acquired taste due to it’s ‘gamey’ flavor or what we term as ‘maanggo’ in Tagalog.  And because this dish is so loved in the Philippines, especially in the north,  that a lot of people cook it using whatever meat they like or is available, like pork and chicken.
