Ingredients

  • 0.75 lbbeef stew meat (1-to-1-1/2-inch pieces)
  • 0.25 tspSalt
  • ⅛ tspPepper
  • 2 tbspAll Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbspCanola Oil
  • 1 largeonion, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  • 2 tbspCurry Powder
  • 2 tspReduced Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 2bay leaves
  • 3 cupBeef Stock
  • 1 lbpotatoes (about 3 medium), cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 largeCarrot, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbspWhite Vinegar
  • : Hot rice cilantro, cooked chopped optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper, then toss it with flour. In a Dutch oven, heat the canola oil over medium heat. Add the beef and onion, and cook them until the meat browns and the onion softens. Editor's Tip: Don't crowd the pan. Giving the beef space means better browning and less steaming.

  2. 2

    Stir in the curry powder, soy sauce, bay leaves and beef stock. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 45 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the potatoes and carrots, then bring the mixture back to a boil. Reduce the heat again and let it simmer, covered, until the beef and vegetables are tender, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Stir it occasionally.

  4. 4

    Remove the bay leaves and stir in the vinegar for a bright finish. If you'd like, serve the beef curry stew over hot rice and sprinkle it with cilantro before serving it.
