Kare-kare or Kaldereta?


I first tasted this dish during one of our weekend visits to my mother-in-law. Bought from a small carinderia owned by their neighbor and family friend. It was a very interesting dish. Pieces of beef with potatoes and carrots with a thick tomato-based sauce just like caldereta. But it also has a slightly yellow tinge and a hint of peanut butter to it just like in a kare-kare. Now, this left hubby and me debating the whole time while having lunch whether it was kaldereta or kare-kare. To settle things we asked the carinderia owner what the said dish was. As it turns out it was supposed to be a kaldereta but they ran out of liver spread so they used peanut butter instead.
