Satisfy your cravings for comfort food with this delightful combination of crispy fries and savory Picadillo, perfect for a cozy night in!

1

Start by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into the shape of fries. Rinse them in cold water and pat them dry with a towel to remove excess moisture.

2

In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the fries to the pot and fry them for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the pot and drain on paper towels.

3

While the fries are cooking, heat more oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

4

Add the ground beef to the skillet and break it up with a spatula, browning it for about 5-7 minutes. Season with cumin, salt, and black pepper.

5

Stir in the diced bell pepper and cook for an additional 3 minutes, followed by the tomato sauce. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 more minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

6

Once the picadillo is ready, serve it over the crispy fries and enjoy the delightful combination.
