👨🍳 Instrucciones

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes on all sides in batches, then set aside.

Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and grated ginger (and chili pepper, if using) and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in the diced tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth, add salt, pepper, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 1.5 hours, or until the beef is tender.

In a small bowl, whisk the peanut butter with about 1 cup of the hot stew liquid until smooth. Pour this mixture back into the pot and stir well to combine.
