Cozy up with a flavorful North African beef stew loaded with barley and beans.
Ingredients:
  • 200g kidney beans
  • 600g diced gravy beef
  • 1 large brown onion, coarsely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 10.00 gm sweet paprika
  • 2.50 gm smoked paprika
  • 5.00 gm ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1020.00 gm (1 litre) chicken style liquid stock
  • 100g pearl barley
  • 250.00 ml coriander leaves, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, set kidney beans and cover with cold water. Allow to soak overnight before using.
  • Preheat oven to 160C. Heat half of the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over high heat. Brown one-third of the beef by cooking and turning for 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat process with remaining beef in 2 batches.
  • In a pan, heat the remaining oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic, paprika, cinnamon, cumin, and turmeric, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant. Combine with beef, drained kidney beans, chicken stock, and barley. Bring to a boil, then bake covered in a preheated oven for 1 1/2-2 hours until beef and beans are tender and sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper, and serve garnished with fresh coriander leaves.
