Speedy’s picadillo
Traditionally, picadillo was cooked with either beef AND chayote, or beef AND potatoes. My father (who was a really fantastic cook) used to make both versions, depending on which vegetable was available. So did I, until a few nights ago when I just felt that beef AND chayote was already too boring, while beef AND potatoes just looked too colorless. A little adventure in the kitchen turned out a new version of picadillo that my family couldn’t get enough of!

I have a more interesting way of cooking picadillo though–I use a combination of cubed chayote, potatoes and carrots. It was something I “invented” a couple of years ago and that’s how we have been enjoying picadillo at home ever since (recipe). [...]

Hi Connie! This one is also my husband favorite kasi nakakain sya one time sa office nila then I tried this one and it was a hit pa din…..he!he!he!
Hi Miss Connie. Ganito pala dapat ang itsura ng Beef Picadillo. Yung nabili ko kasi sa Filipino restaurant dito, mukhang Giniling kaya nagtataka ako kung ano difference ng dalawa. From your post, kaya siguro maalat yung beef picadillo nila kasi walang potatoes, hindi na-absorb yung salt. Anyway, will try the recipe. Looks simple enough, kayang kaya ng isang amateur gaya ko =)
