Cazuela (Spanish pronunciation: [kaˈθwela] or Spanish pronunciation: [kaˈswela]) is the common name given to a variety of dishes, especially from South America. It receives its name from the cazuela (Spanish for cooking pot) – traditionally, an often shallow pot made of unglazed earthenware used for cooking.[1][2] The ingredients and preparation vary from region to region, but it is usually a mid-thick flavoured stock obtained from cooking several kinds of meats and vegetables mixed together.
