Ingredients For 4 people, you will need: - 1 kg of tender beef (choose a piece of meat for the stew) - 1 white onion - 2 red onions - 2 medium carrots - 1 suitable celery - 2 red bell peppers - 1 white beetroot - 4-5 cloves garlic - 500 ml country red wine (dry) - 700 ml meat broth (approximately) - 2-3 bay leaves - Tomato paste (to taste) - 1 cup long grain rice - 2 cups water or hot soup (for the rice) - 2 teaspoons curry powder - 1 cube butter - Spices to taste: cardamom, sweet paprika, thyme, oregano, turmeric, chili paprika - Peppercorns - Soy sauce (to taste) - salt Preparation 1. Preparing the meat: Start by washing the beef thoroughly, then dry it with a kitchen towel. Cut the meat into bite-sized cubes to cook evenly and allow the flavors to penetrate. Season the meat with salt and your favorite seasonings, then add a little olive oil and massage the meat well. A good idea is to marinate the meat in the refrigerator overnight to intensify the flavors. 2. Preparing the vegetables: Wash all the vegetables. Chop the white onions and red onions finely, the carrots, chard and celery into thin slices and the peppers into larger cubes. Crush the garlic in a mortar or press with the blade of a larger knife to release the flavors. 3. Sauté the vegetables: In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until onion is glassy. Add the garlic, then the carrots, celery and sorrel, cooking each vegetable for a few minutes. At the end, add the paprika. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside. 4. Cooking the meat: In the same pan, add the beef and fry over medium heat, stirring frequently, until browned on all sides. While the meat is cooking, gradually add more of the hot broth, simmering slowly. 5. Adding the wine and vegetables: Once the meat is cooked through, add the vegetables back to the pan. Pour in the red wine, add the peppercorns, bay leaves and a few tablespoons of tomato paste broken up with the soup. If you want a more intense taste, you can also add soy sauce to taste. Let the mixture simmer until the sauce thickens and the flavors blend well. 6. Preparing the rice: In a separate pot, add the rice with 2 cups of water or hot soup, curry powder, a cube of butter, a little salt, cardamom and turmeric. Cover the pot with aluminum foil and a lid and simmer for 15 minutes. After this time, turn off the heat and let the rice rest covered for another 10 minutes. Serving To serve this delicious dish, place generous portions of the spicy beef on plates and top with curried rice. You can garnish with freshly chopped parsley or sliced peppers for extra color. This recipe pairs perfectly with a fresh green salad or a sour pickle, which will add a delicious contrast. Helpful tips - Choose top quality beef for a tender and tasty stew.
