👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes in batches until nicely seared on all sides. Remove beef and set aside.
- 2
Add chopped onions to the pot and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and ginger and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes begin to break down.
- 4
Add curry powder, paprika, and hot paprika (if using). Stir well and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 5
Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the cubed potatoes and carrots.
- 6
Season with salt and black pepper. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through. Stir occasionally and add more broth or water if the stew becomes too thick.
- 7
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, traditionally with ugali or chapati.
