I actually made picadillo tonight. Growing up Abuela and Mami made it without raisins or potatoes. My husband likes potatoes in picadillo, so I now add potatoes.

It's easy and delicious. Just add 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef to a pan season with salt, let it brown and cook in there, chop up sofrito and add once the beef releases fat and water evaporates. Cook down, add 1 cup tomato sauce cook a bit, add water bring to a boil, season with a little comino, stir well, the olives and capers if using. Let boil uncovered 3-5 minutes, turn off add your "Papa frita" stir well. It's so good!!! Raisins are alright but my dad will kill me since he hates them. But I always have to have the "Papa frita" sometimes we cook the sofrito first and then add the meat like you did :) http://nathanscomida.blogspot.com/2008/07/picadillo-salteado-con-papas-cuban-beef.html MmmmmMmmmm I love a good Picadillo, I finally have a recipe to stick with too I experimented so much with Picadillo, but always go back to my grandmothers basics.
