1. 1

   Season the beef cubes with salt and pepper.

   💡 Proffstips: Ensure beef is well-seasoned for a flavorful stew.
2. 2

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

   💡 Proffstips: Do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
3. 3

   Remove the beef from the pot and set aside. Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened.

4. 4

   Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

5. 5

   Return the beef to the pot. Add the chopped tomatoes, carrots, potatoes, beef broth (or water), and bay leaf.

6. 6

   Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is tender.

   💡 Proffstips: Stir occasionally and add more liquid if needed.
7. 7

   While the stew simmers, prepare the pap. In a separate pot, bring 4-5 cups of water to a boil. Gradually whisk in the maize meal to avoid lumps.

   💡 Proffstips: Start with less water and add more to achieve desired consistency.
8. 8

   Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook the pap for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a firm porridge.

9. 9

   Once the beef is tender and the stew has thickened, season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.

   💡 Proffstips: The stew should be rich and flavorful.
10. 10

    Serve the beef stew hot, alongside a generous portion of pap.
