How long do you cook the guatita meat for? I called Vallarta Market and the butcher said "to cook a pound of this meat for at least 35 minutes for tenderness. Is this true?  I do not have a pressured pot, which would be a lot less time.  I had an unpleasant cooking experience with this meat one day because I used a pressured pot and left the meat in it too long, it melted and burned the pot.  I never attempted to cook this dish again.  I would appreciate it any cooking tips for librillo (meat cook time).  This was my dear mother's favorite dish, when she lived.  Thank you.
