👨🍳 Instruções

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
- 2
Add the chopped onions to the same pot and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have broken down and become saucy.

Add the curry powder and paprika, stirring to combine with the tomato mixture. Cook for 1 minute.
- 5
Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth, add salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 1 hour, or until the beef is starting to become tender.
- 7
Add the cubed potatoes and sliced carrots to the pot. Stir to combine, ensuring the vegetables are mostly submerged in the liquid. If needed, add a little more water or broth.
- 8
Cover and continue to simmer for another 30-45 minutes, or until the beef is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.

Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving, if desired.
