Chilean Cazuela de Vaca

1 1/2 pounds beef roast
1 32 ounces beef broth
2 cups water
1/4 cup polenta, coarse or fine
8 red potatoes, cut in half
1 onion, quartered
1 1/2 pounds slice of pumpkin (calabaza)
2 ears corn, cut into thirds
1 carrot, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 stalk celery, cut into chunks
1 leek, split in half, then cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 teaspoon minced fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon mild paprika
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro leaves, lightly packed

Cut the piece of beef into 6 large chunks, one per serving. Place the beef into a large saucepan and pour in the beef broth and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer until nearly tender, 1 to1 1/2 hours.

Stir the polenta into the stew along with the potatoes and onion. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Cut the pumpkin into 6, serving-sized pieces, and add to the stew along with the corn, carrot, bell pepper, celery, and leek and simmer until the vegetables are tender, adding more water if needed to barely cover.

Stir in the oregano and paprika during the last 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle into serving bowls, and sprinkle
with chopped cilantro.
Serves 6.
