to soak. 2. Meanwhile, heat half the oil in a kettle and add the
onion., garlic and green pepper. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add
the olives, capers, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, bay leaf and tabasco
sauce to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 min. 3. While
the vegetable mixture is cooking, heat the remaining oil in a skillet
and add the meat. Cook, breaking up the meat with the side of a metal
spoon to prevent lumps, until the meat loses its red color. 4. Add
the meat to the vegetable mixture and stir to blend. 5. Drain the
currants and add them. 6. Add the tomatoes. Cook, stirring often,
about 45 min. Skim off the fat as it rises to the surface during
cooking. 7. Serve hot with freshly cooked rice.
