Carne gobernada is a traditional dish originating from the region of Asturias. The dish is usually made with a combination of beef, onions, garlic, white wine, oil, and salt. The beef is cleaned, cut into cubes, seasoned with salt, mixed with garlic, and sautéed in oil.

Diced onions are added to the pan and the meat is cooked slowly. White wine is added to the pan and the meat is cooked until it's golden brown and soft. One should be extra careful not to let the onions burn while the meat cooks. Near the end of cooking, potatoes fried in olive oil are added to the pan, and the dish is ready to be enjoyed.
