Beef Caldereta (Kalderetang baka)

Beef Caldereta is meat spiced with tomato sauce, chili paste, liver spread, and cheese. It is traditionally made with goat meat. Because goat meat is often unavailable in local markets, many locals use beef as a substitute. The recipe  has many variations, depending on the province where it is served. This dish requires liver spread. It helps to make the soup thick and tasty. If you don’t have liver spread on hand, you can use cheese. It is an excellent beer match, as well. This dish is usually served at fiestas and various social gatherings.
