cooking liquid; reserve remaining cooking liquid for another use. Heat
olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute
until golden. Add garlic, oregano and cumin and saute until fragrant. Add
tomatoes and continue to cook until most of liquid evaporates. Add shredded
meat and 1 cup reserved cooking liquid. Season to taste with salt and
pepper. Arrange the beef, rice and beans on a rectangular platter in three
rows with the rice in the center (it should look like the Venezuelan flag).
Heat vegetable oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into
skillet. Fry until softly set. Serve atop beans, meat and rice. This recipe
yields 6 servings.
