Preparation:

Step 1
• Prepare garlic: Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Place the cut garlic heads on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Fold the foil in half and place the baking sheet in the oven preheated to 160°C (325°F). Bake until the garlic is softened, about 45 minutes. Peel the garlic afterward.
Step 2
• Meanwhile, fry the beef: Grind 6 cloves of garlic into a paste using a food processor. Season the meat on all sides with salt, pepper, paprika, and chili powder.
  
  Heat 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a large ovenproof skillet. Brown the beef in batches over medium-high heat on both sides, about 5 minutes each. Transfer the browned beef to a cutting board and brush with garlic paste. Drain the skillet and wipe dry.
Step 3
• Cooking beef in the oven: Heat the remaining tablespoon of canola oil in a saucepan over medium heat, add the onion, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Season with salt and brown sugar and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Add the apple cider vinegar and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the beef and wine and simmer for 25 minutes.
  
  Add the bay leaves and beef broth, bringing to a boil with the lid on. Then place the pan in the oven and cook until the beef is tender, 2 hours to 2 hours 30 minutes. After this time, transfer the beef to a platter and let it rest for 15 minutes. Then slice the beef thinly against the grain.
Step 4
• Prepare garlic sauce: Place the pan on the stove, remove the bay leaves, and simmer the braising liquid until thickened, about 20 minutes. Stir in the roasted garlic, season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
• Fry the tortillas in a frying pan. Mix the meat with a little garlic sauce. Place the meat and shredded cabbage on each tortilla.
