👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Pat the beef dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
2
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove beef and set aside.
3
Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4
Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, curry powder, cumin, coriander, and chili powder. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
5
Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
6
Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour, or until the beef is tender.
7
Add the cubed sweet potatoes to the pot. Stir, cover, and continue to simmer for another 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
8
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
