Middle Eastern Beef and Turnip Stew
Ingredients
  • 6 cups water, or as needed
  • 1 pound beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 (6 ounce) can tomato paste, or more as needed
  • 4 cups water
  • 5 turnips, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 2 cups cooked rice
Instructions
1
Boil a substantial quantity of water, approximately 6 cups, in an enormous vessel; cook the stew meat until it reaches a satisfactory level of doneness and the water has entirely vanished, taking between 30 to 45 minutes. Periodically remove any excess fat that accumulates at the surface of the water as necessary.
2
Combine the cooked stew meat with a generous amount of tomato paste, ensuring it is evenly coated, taking around 1 to 2 minutes.
3
Add a substantial quantity of water, turnips, salt, and black pepper to the stew meat mixture; bring the entire concoction to a rolling boil. Introduce a blend of lemon juice, maple syrup, and sugar into the stew meat mixture; lower the heat to a moderate level and allow it to simmer until the liquid has significantly reduced, taking between 30 to 40 minutes.
4
Serve the stew meat mixture over a bed of cooked rice.
