👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
2
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and ginger and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3
Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the beef stock, diced tomatoes, cayenne pepper, coriander, cumin, nutmeg (if using), and bay leaf. Stir to combine.
4
Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender. Stir occasionally.
5
Stir in the peanut butter until well combined. Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 30 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
6
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Serve hot, ideally with mashed potatoes or rice.
