Hearty African Beef Stew
Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 2 onions, roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons harissa
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • water to cover
  • 2 potatoes, chopped
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
Instructions
1
Heat a large stockpot over medium heat, introducing the beef and stirring constantly until it reaches a rich brown color, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
2
Add sliced onions and minced garlic to the pot, stirring frequently as they soften and become translucent, taking around 5 to 10 minutes.
3
Incorporate the harissa spice blend into the beef mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated before continuing to cook and stir for an additional 2 minutes.
4
Sprinkle salt and pepper over the beef mixture to enhance its flavor profile.
5
Carefully pour in enough water to submerge all ingredients, bringing the mixture to a rolling boil.
6
Introduce diced potatoes and crushed tomatoes into the stew, then gradually decrease the heat to a low-medium setting.
7
Allow the stew to simmer gently for 2 to 3 hours, or until both the beef and potatoes have reached a tender state.
