Ingredients

1 small potato, peeled and cut into cubes
30 ml olive oil
120 ml sweet corn kernels
30 ml sofrito
2 cloves garlic, minced
240 ml tomato sauce
5 ml dried oregano
1 large bay leaf
120 ml water
340 g canned corned beef
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Start by bringing a small pot of water to a boil. Add the cubed potato and cook uncovered until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the drained potatoes, sweet corn, sofrito, and garlic. Cook and stir until fragrant, for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the tomato sauce, oregano, and bay leaf to the skillet. Cook and stir until the flavors combine, for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the corned beef. Cook until heated through, for about 6 to 8 minutes.
Step 5
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Step 6
Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
