Simmer the brisket with an onion and salt for an hour and a half, until fully tender.

Fry the onion, garlic, pepper and tomatoes with the annatto to a thick base.
Slake the masa in cold broth until smooth, without a single lump.
Add the shredded meat to the vegetable base and warm it five minutes.
Pour in the slaked masa in a thin stream, stirring constantly, and cook twenty minutes.
Add the orange juice, stir in the chopped mint and serve it with rice.
