👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Pat the beef dry with paper towels. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove the beef and set aside.
2
Add the chopped onions to the pot and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the diced tomatoes and beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
4
Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the bay leaves, all-purpose seasoning, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Stir to combine.
5
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the beef is tender. If using spinach, stir it in during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
6
Remove the bay leaves before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with fufu, rice, or boiled plantains.
