  1. 1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef with onions and garlic in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Turn heat down to medium-low. Add tomato sauce and wine and let simmer. Stir in olives. Season with salt and pepper; adjust the seasonings per taste.
  2. 2 Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and mash potatoes, then set aside to cool.
  3. 3 Separate the egg yolks from the whites into two bowls. Mix the egg yolks into the cooled mashed potato mixture. Whisk the egg whites for 1 minute.
  4. 4 Take 1/4 cup of the mashed potatoes and form into a ball. Make a dent in the ball, to give it more of a bowl shape. Fill the indentation with 1 tablespoon of the meat mixture, and then reseal it.
  5. 5 Reshape the potato as a ball again. Dip the ball in the egg whites, then roll the ball around in bread crumbs until coated. Repeat with remaining potato and meat mixture. For a better coating, or for a crunchier texture, you may dip the ball into the egg whites again and coat it with another layer of bread crumbs. Refrigerate the potato balls for at least 4 hours before frying.
  6. 6 Pour enough oil into a skillet or frying pan to cover half of the potato balls. Heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  7. 7 Working in batches, place several balls into the frying pan and cook on each side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, taking care not to overcook. Drain the stuffed potatoes in a single layer on paper towels.

  1. 1 Lay roast flat on your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a pocket in roast by inserting the knife all the way through the center of the roast, beginning on the flat side. Rotate the blade 90 degrees and insert the knife in the same spot, creating a cross shape that extends through the roast. Stuff chorizo pieces into pocket. Pierce roast all over using the same knife; transfer to a glass or ceramic bowl.
  2. 2 Mash garlic and oregano with a mortar and pestle until a paste forms; rub all over roast, then season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour orange juice, lime juice, and lemon juice over roast. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or overnight. Remove roast from marinade; shake off excess. Reserve marinade.
  3. 3 Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown roast on all sides, about 10 minutes; transfer to a platter, and set aside. Add onions; cook and stir until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Return roast to the Dutch oven. Add beef broth, sherry, reserved marinade, and bay leaves. Increase heat to medium-high, bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low; simmer 2 hours.
  4. 4 Add potatoes to the Dutch oven, cover, and continue to simmer until potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes more, adding additional beef broth as needed.
  5. 5 Transfer roast to a platter; cover with two layers of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes. Slice roast into 1/2-inch-thick slices; arrange potatoes on the platter. Pour sauce over roast and potatoes to serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Whisk vino seco, 1/4 cup olive oil, and salt together in a large bowl. Add oxtails and mix well to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 12 hours.
  2. 2 Drain oxtails, discarding all but 1/2 cup of the marinade.
  3. 3 Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and sear oxtails until browned on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same pot. Saute potatoes, onion, and carrots until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  4. 4 Mash garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a coarse paste in a mortar and pestle. Add garlic paste to the pot; stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in green olives, bay leaves, sazon completa, sazon seasoning, and allspice. Pour in reserved marinade, tomato sauce, and chicken broth.
  5. 5 Return oxtails to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until oxtails are fork tender and falling off the bone, about 4 hours.
