Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season beef cubes with salt and pepper, then sear on all sides until browned. Remove beef from the pot and set aside.

Add the cassava chunks to the pot. Ensure they are submerged in the liquid. Cover and continue to simmer for another 1 to 1.5 hours, or until both the beef and cassava are very tender and the cassava has started to break down and thicken the stew.
💡 Professionelle Tips: Cassava will soften and release starch, naturally thickening the stew. If it becomes too thick, add a little more broth or water. - 7
Season the stew with additional salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley and green onions before serving.
