This is a delicious and heartwarming dish that includes a lot of spices and is a twist on a typical beef stew. Try it and get transformed to another place. In this recipe I used young calf meat that I purchased from my butcher but you can use regular beef or lean pork loin available from any supermarket.  Serve it along with rice and a salad for a complete meal.

SERVES 4

INGREDIENTS

1  onion, chopped roughly
3  garlic cloves, chopped
1  tbsp canola oil
13 oz diced beef loin (373 g)
1  tbsp ginger, grated
2  tbsp tomato paste
⅛ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp turmeric
⅛ tsp ground cloves
⅛ tsp freshly ground nutmeg
    salt and freshly ground black pepper
 

Heat a medium size pot to medium heat, add oil, onion, garlic, season with salt and pepper and sauté for 5 minutes or until they soften.

Add beef and sauté stirring every few minutes. After 7 minutes, add ginger, tomato paste, cinnamon, turmeric, ground cloves, and nutmeg. Incorporate all the spices together. Add a few tablespoons of water to loosen up the mixture, turn the heat down to very low, cover the pot with a lid and cook it for 20-30 minutes.
