After stew under the lid for another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in enough water to cover the meat, season with salt and continue to simmer under the lid for another 40 minutes.

Add the tomato paste. You can also use a fresh tomato: remove from it a peel and a fork to turn the pulp into gruel. Stew for another 5 minutes. After add the peeled and cut potatoes and top up the water so that it covers the contents of the pan. Put the bay leaf, cover the pan with a lid and cook until the potatoes are ready.

After the potatoes are cooked, stir the dish and pour some broth into the cup. Allow to cool, add 1 teaspoon of flour, stir well with a fork and pour back into the pan. This method will make the consistency of the dish more intense and thick. Stir, pepper and bring to a boil. Serve with cream sauce or sour cream.
