How to make Puerto Rican Picadillo(Boricua style)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 июл 2024
- Today's video is a classic Puerto Rican dish, picadillo. Picadillo is our version of chili without beans or sloppy Joe meat and is used as a main meal or as a filling for a lot of dishes like Pastelon de papa (Potato lasagna) empanadillas or empanadas and many others. I usually make a double batch of it, serve with surprise white rice; then save the rest for empanadillas (fried meat filled turnovers).
Ingredients for the Picadillo:
2lbs ground beef ( I used 90% lean)
1 8oz can tomato sauce
1 envelope Ham seasoning
1 envelope Sazon Knorr
Minced Garlic
3 tablespoons or 3 cubes sofrito
Cumin and Oregano
Olives with pimentos
Fresh cilantro
Adobo Goya to taste
Buen Provecho!

I'm not an experienced cook, and as a boring white guy I'm not even real familiar with Puerto Rican dishes, but my wife is Puerto Rican and has been longing for the kind of food she used to eat as a kid. So I found your videos today, made a shopping list, cooked as I watched you on my phone in front of the stove, turned on some El Gran Combo and surprised my wife when she came home from work. She LOVED the food! She does have one complaint however... she's so full she says she can't even move.
love it...wheppa.
El gran combo in the kitchen hits different 👌
good man you are
That's so sweet!
Just wanted to let you know, it's 10 years later and I *still* look at/reference your videos when I want to make some Puertorican food.
Thank you for making these videos.
Same! I call her my Tia because I depend on her videos so much😊
Me too!!! This is the best recipe ever
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm Puerto Rican but I was raised by my dad. I learned how to make rice and beans and how to season meat but my dad didn't teach me everything. I'm trying to learn new dishes. I'm pretending your my aunt teaching me how to cook. :)
yayi241 You're welcome!
@@sweetsandbeyond gracias Titi!!!
Me tooo. My dad raised me... wepaa to single mom dads.. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ he taught me some, and I learned as I grew.. but Ida's recipes are the closest I get to my childhood comida. Oxoxoxox blessings your way...❤❤❤❤❤❤
OMG! When I was a young teen in PR, my neighbor taught me how to make rice using the standing spoon method to ensure the right rice/water ratio. That was 35 years ago and everyone I told said they never heard of that. I lived en Aguas Buenas at that time. You’ve brought me a wonderful memory! Thank you!
Hello Ida..i married a PR man 5 yrs ago and wanted to learn to cook PR food for him and so I began watching your videos. I am held on high here for all I learned from you. My husband says some of the recipes I have perfected in the 5 yrs are better then his Mamas! I am so thankful to you. 💜🙏 We are departing to Colorado to develop some property to retire on and will be RV living for a while. I have been putting together a small cookbook for us and our crew and your Picadillo is a starred page for our ground beef section. Thank you thank you ! Sincerely Kelley Acevedo aka Dessert Mamita
i made the Picadillo with white rice and he loved it. He is Puerto Rican but i am not. i wanted to surprise him. Thank you so much for your posts. You are a life saver!
You go girl. You taught me something new today.☺🇵🇷
Yo soy boricua.🇵🇷100%😉

No....sweetnesss...she, I AM Black! It is more than a color, ethnicity and race!
Chrissy x Black is a race. Calm that fake deep shit down.

My husband is Puerto Rican and I'm full on Mexican and for the past year he's eaten nothing but Mexican food besides the times we go out and buy p.r food. so hopefully now I can surprise him with some type of Puerto Rican food he can come home too
How'd it come out? I'm a little curious, lol.
purtrecon recipes
My Puerto Rican boyfriend said it tastes Mexican😩
@@andreaseawell-torres8306 I'm the same boat. Puerto Rican boyfriend and everything I make tastes like Mexican food 😔
BlackMamba girl we can’t win lol I loved the recipe and I am from Belize which has a lot of Mexican influences so maybe I’m putting a twist to the way I prepare my food 🤷🏽♀️
I love you Ida! Seriously! Your step by step instructions and the way you make sure we get it right makes me proud to be Puerto Rican 😃 Much Love Ida for All You do and have done to help me (more than you'll ever know) ❤❤
Thank you so much for the Recipe,YOURS IS THE BEST ON THE INTERNET!!! I have tried other Recipes for it from the Internet,and I threw away 2 pounds of ground beef twice!!! It just tasted yucky, But your Recipe is the greatest,A few simple Ingredients,and the greatest Taste
I use to eat these wen I was little. And have been looking for them for about 20 years. Thyank you sooooooooooooooooo Much
What a BIG difference from what I was making... I will never make it the "wrong" way again... so
Happy I found your channel... your a blessing thank you... xo
I am mandated by my boys to make your amazing picadillo at least 3 times a month. thank you for the amazing recipe. I am such a fan
I'm an american with very little hispanic cuisine experience. I've been married to a Puerto Rican man from Rincon for a year now, you are a LIFE SAVER! I love you :D!
I wish the colleges would offer classes in Puerto Rican cuisine in California. I would have definitely taken them when I was a student. Thanks to RUclips, I get a second chance at life! You are a marvelous cook!
OMG!!!! I'M SOOOO EXCITED!! THIS IS MY FIRST TIME EATING PUERTO RICAN FOOD and I just LOVEDDDD it!!! I made your sofrito, pigeon peas with rice, and picadillo. My husband is East African and he loved it!!! My children loved it too! I bought some plantains that were black and fried them in coconut oil muy delicioso!!! Please keep recipes coming!!!
You Go Girl !!!!
Welcome to the family!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love that you’re so patient and that you explain everything in detail, wish i had a teacher like you when i was learning how to cook, thanks for sharing!
This is amazing. It had been so long since I made this dish. When my kids were small I would add a can or some frozen green beans and served it with white rice and sweet plantains. Cant wait to make those alcapurias. My husband is Irish American and loves my puerto rican food. So glad to have a guide to these delicious foods. Just like my grandma made. Gracias
You are a pleasure to listen to , first in English I can share with those that can’t speak Spanish.....love your recipes...keep them coming
I use this picadillo for filling my enchiladas, and especially for my tamales. I have a 32cm Concord Cookware 3 Tier Steamer Steam Pot, so I can steam two dozen corn husk, or banana leaf wrapped tamales at one time. Even though I've exactly followed this recipe several times, I'm still amazed that such a simple picadillo can taste so terrific! I freeze them and reheat them as needed. Sweets and beyond, thank you very, very much for clearly presenting this wonderful recipe! El hombre guapo, gran cocinero, en Sarasota
Awww thank you for the kind words!
Making this again tonight. It has become a staple and family favorite in my house. Thanks, Aida!
@raquel massanet Your comments are wekcomed! More videos are coming soon. Thank you for your kind words.
I love how organized you are when cooking. It's a sign of a good chef.
I just wanted to thank you for posting your videos, I've been following you for about a year now and I wasn't so great at cooking. Now I can cook a whole lot better and so flavorful thanks to your videos. I'm Dominican but cook more with a Puerto Rican hint lol my husband loves it.
+Marianellys Ciriaco You're welcome!
I only trust your videos when looking for something new to cook for PR food. 🙌🏼❤️
I’m Puerto rican💐im happy 😆 our people are on u tube making these beautiful dishes.i cook 👨🍳 more of other food for my family.than my culture 🥘 food .im still learning .🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷great video 💯💝
Oh My! I absolutely love picadillo. Picadillo and white rice, picadillo burritos, picadillo enchiladas, etc. Such a wonderful food.
omg! I prepared this while watching you. its amazing. I made your sofrito last week. Thank you so much. theres no spanish restaurants here but I got you lol
Where can I get Knorr Sazon in NJ having trouble locating
Tracy Turner Shoprite sells it in the Jamaican section
Bodegas
Kinkycoily carla you need to open one up than😹
Thank you for this recipe! I'm Mexican American and sometimes cooking for my Puerto Rican/Dominican husband is very hard. We both like things the way we like them. I made this for him last week and he couldn't stop saying how much he loved it!! Making it again tonight!!! Glad he turned me on to your channel.
I love reading this! So happy for you!
That look nasty
That's your opinion. It's delicious to me!
OK. Now
Lol
I just made this and I feel like I just went back in the Delorean to 1985 in my abuelita's kitchen and I'm so happy. Thank you @Sweets and Beyond you the best Ida!
Ida! I just want to thank you for sharing this recipe!! I love to cook and often I'm looking for something different to make... I followed your instructions and it turned out delicious. I have made Picadillo before but your recipe is the best....and you're right the Ham flavoring sets it off!! Thanks again 😘
Just made this! Didn't have tomato sauce so i used canned diced tomatoes and didn't have cilantro either.. but definitely still delicious! ! Thank you! My family LOVED it! Will be trying all your recipes & commenting lol
You know that's an old tradition in measuring the rice and water I am 65yrs and growing up both my parents did it that way always perfect rice :)
Hi, I'm 7 months pregnant and I started watching your videos like 3 years ago and i just made this dish today and it was amazing. Thank you so much! :)
I made this today! Since i used 1lb beef i only used 3t Adobo and 1T olives, 1/2 & 1/2 sazon and ham seasoning. A little too salty for my liking so i added 1.5t tomato paste and a pinch of sugar. Going to let it sit overnight to let it all come together. So far it's very delicious! Used my own Sofrito from your recipe as well. Thank you!
I made this and did not have ham seasoning so I used cut up ham, it came out delish! Family loved it. Today I will try it with the ham seasoning.
I fancy myself a pretty good cook, especially when it comes to Puerto Rican food, but I gotta say that this channel is awesome! I like watching how others cook in the hopes of learning something new or different. I have managed to pick up a few things here and there watching how you prepare and cook your meals. Great channel!
I made this for empanadas on New Years it was such a big hit people absoulty loved this Picadillio. I'm Tex-mex I don't cook Puerto Rican food but you have changed that....THANK YOU
I have made this so many times for a bunch of people, and everyone loves it. Tonight, I made empanadas, and my family loved them. They were so stinking delicious! I’m not sure I ever want to make this without doubling the batch, so I can pull out half before adding water. Just so I can have empanadas too! Thank you for the videos; you explain so clearly! Great job!
I just used this VERY recipe for the second time tonight and I'm telling you it smells amazing. Im waiting for my boyfriend to get home so I can dig in! The last time I made this I forgot the ham seasoning, but this time I had it and it made a difference when I was cooking. Your videos are very nice, very direct, and just the right amount of details so I can follow along as I was cooking. Thank you.
slimjimbk78 You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
This delicious, I put it over macaroni instead of rice, so it was Puerto Rican beef a roni LOL. My family says thank you!!!! *Lydia*
Old school Glam now i know what im making for dinner!
+Angie Vazquez
angela ? from central ..
sounds amazing
I also use this picadillo to make a Puerto Rican style goulash or "Beef-a-roni". My parents are from San Lorenzo, PR, well into their 80s, and they absolutely love it! I make it every other week in a large batch that serves 3 or 4 meals, refrigerate and they plate, nuke and eat when they want to. My go to when I want to go golfing, fishing or just get away for a short break. Thank you, Ida!
OMG, the nostalgia. I feel like I just traveled back in time, to when I was about 7-8 years old, standing next to my mama as she cooks some of my favorite dishes. You get my sub just for that.
Thank you so much. You are my favorite channel for PR food.
Just made this for pastelon. Omg sooo good! Thanks for sharing this!
I just did this and it smells so good at home right now. You weren't kidding about first adding the ham seasoning. Yummy!!! Buen provecho y gracias :D
I just finished making this and omg I love it!!! Can’t wait to make it for dad! 🇵🇷 Thank you for your step by step recipes!
This time I cooked along with you, I followed your instructions exactly, the picadillo came out so good, and it's so easy too. my family loves it.
Thank you, Ida.
Don't know how I ended up here but I haven't had this dish in forever my abuelita used to make it so good growing up! It's such a simple but satisfying dish that I forgot about. Going to make this tonight and you have so many good recipes. Subscribed.
Sweets and Beyond im about to make this right now. I love you for these videos. thank you so much
I loveeee anything n everything that's Boricua

This looks so good. Haha, I am so happy that I found your channel. Your directions are so easy and simple to follow.
I just made your recipe. The only thing I did different is add onion powder and roasted red peppers. It came out awesome. Thank you for this video. It's so good.

Good morning! I'm making empanadas for my job and I needed that confidence boosted so I had to listen to your video while making it, like a sister talking to me step by step. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing "Our traditional Foods" from the Island of Enchantment, I love all the recipes, some of which I don't really cook, my brother knows how to make pateles, and my sister and myself have not made since my mother pass away 15 years ago....but I definitely will make pasteles....for the "Holidays" bring back the Beautiful memory of "mami making pasteles........I must say I love cooking the "Boriqua" way.

I love your dishes. I have tried almost every dish that you have made and the food is delicious! What I love about your dishes is that they are very easy to make because you show every step in the process. My 13 year old daughter has mastered your stewed beans with potatoes. It is so yummy, THANK YOU!

I've tried 4 Picadillo recipes and this is the BEST one! I followed the instructions exactly. Thank you : )
I just made this recipe over the weekend for the first time. Fantastic and delicious! The only substitution I used was the homemade version of Sazon you do in place of the Knorr packet. Thanks again for so many great recipes!
This is my favorite recipe, I make this for guests and everyone loves it!
+Reliable Pickup So happy you like it!
Such a difference when u do the steps I have always just thrown in and walked away lol this is in the recipe for life!
Thank you so much! Your comment made my day! Which recipes have you tried? What would you like to learn how to do? Sorry for all the questions :-)
This recipe was amazing!!! We used the leftovers the next night for empanadillas and they tasted wonderful. Each recipe that I have made from your channel has turned out perfect. Thanks for sharing your talents with us :)

I stumbled across your video and decide to make picadillo exactly how you made it. Let's just say I'm now the picadillo queen in my house thank you so much for this video, everyone loved how it came out and it was thanks to you ❤️
I followed your instructions exactly and it came out delicious! :) thank you, thank you, thank you for giving such clear directions so that us beginner's can become a pro like you^_^

Just finished making this! The smell alone lets me know that it’s going to taste good. Keep the recipes coming🙌🏽👏🏽!
My boyfriend is Puerto Rican and I’m not and it’s been so hard for me to find recipes until I found your videos! I made a dish and it came out good you made everything so easy to follow! Thank you!!!!!
Thanks you Aida I love wactch you cook you are a beautiful soul.☺❤
+Tashima Russell Thank you so much!
I love your videos. I made the BEST arroz con gandules thanks to you.
+Alix Sanchez Awesome! Glad you liked it!
I’ve tried a few of your recipes and they all come out so good. Appreciate your simple and direct instructions. Thank you.
Lo prepare ahora mismo para mi esposa y me quedo brutal. Muchas gracias por el tiempo!!! Bendecida!!!
Girl! That recipe was delish, I made it using ground turkey and a package of ground turkey sausage (cause I had it)
Didn’t have adobo so I seasoned w salt, garlic, culantro, oregano and cumin, mixed it well following your instructions, then added the chicken bouillon cause I didn’t have the ham one, and an envelope of culantro y achiote Goya packet seasoning, mixed some more, added 8 oz of premade pasta sauce by paul Newman 😂 cause that’s all the tomatoe sauce I had, and then added the fresh cilantro in the end. I must say it’s been the best picadillo I have ever made, thanks to u! Also love your mannerism and the way you come across is very appealing and real, keep it up. This quarantine is making me very creative in the kitchen and im so happy to have great cooks like u to fall back on🙏🏼👊🏼🥰
i used ground turkey too !! it was very juicy
I had everything for the sofrito, except the Cubanelle; I used bell pepper in it's place; it worked well!
You’re a poet and you don’t even know it.
@@GianniAzul3609 😆
@@GianniAzul3609 Yes! It rhymes perfectly! 😂
Honestly, one of the best dishes and recipes I've tasted. Thanks again for sharing!
Can't wait to try this! I have tried a few of your recipes and you have NEVER let me down. I plan on using this for pastelon. My PR husband never ceases to be amazed by the dinners I have made from your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your gift. You are my go to 😊
6k 👍 "Winners" and 92 👎 "Losers" Look's like the Winners are Winning 😁
Thanks for your great recipe's Always Appreciated 😁
LOL you are too funny!
Ida! Thank you for this, I made it last night for my pasta it was delicious! I am excited about lunch today too, I am having left overs they will be even better :)
Victoria John You're welcome! Glad you liked it.
Making this for the fifth time love follow to a tea every time !!!!! Love your videos !!!
Thank you for sharing! I’m Mexican and my husband is Puerto Rican . I am excited to try this for him . We went to Orlando over the weekend and went to the food trucks and ate so much Puerto Rican food and he was so happy 😀 ! I am definitely going to try this with the white rice of course.
I made it with you idea of putting in a ham bullion, my family love it (didn't have Goya so I use the knorr)...Thank you :-)
Making this recipe at this moment. The sauce is delicious! I made it exactly as you said except I added potatoes and diced onions. Great recipe!
We (in Ponce) also add potatoes and onions ...also peppers and olives. (sometimes we add chopped boiled eggs , for the Empanadillas filling) :)
Did you cook the potatoes first?
So did I because when I added 1 1/2 T. of GOYA Adobo, it was too salty. I also added SunMaid Golden Raisins;) That bit of sweetness is a pleasant surprise!
Yes, but don’t overcook or they will be like mashed potatoes. Boil or steam just until a knife can easily pierce them, cool and then dice;)
HB eggs are a nice addition as well for empanadillas & papas rellenas filling.
@@acomerboricuafoodlifestyle4352 yes, my MIL was from Yauco and added the same things. Scrumptious!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! I made this and it was sssooo GOOD!! thank you for sharing I adjusted it a little and used ground turkey, smoked paprika, onion powder and garlic powder. I did not use sofrito I used a salt free seasoning with spices because my boyfriend doesn’t like onions but this was a way he couldn’t tell it had onions in it. Thanks again
she is amazing the way she explained all receipts. thanks
Well, I'm new to your videos, so I will have to look up your white rice recipe, or what you use (as there are so many types of white rice) ;)
