In Costa Rica we add Salsa Lizano to flavour it. Stir for 5 minutes until beef is almost cooked. Add in the potatoes with just a bit of the salty water (check your seasoning before!). Cover the pan and let it cook at low temperature for 10 to 15 minutes stirring from time to time. When fully cooked you will have your picadillo ready!.
