Method

  • Cut the beef into small cubes (about 1/8 inch square) and fry in a pan until lightly browned all over.

  • Transfer the beef into a casserole dish (with lid) and add the onion, stock, and garlic. Bring to the boil and simmer for 90 minutes with the lid on.

  • Add the tomatoes, chilli powder and cumin. Give it a good stir and let it cook on low for another hour and 15 minutes. Add water if it gets a bit dry.

  • Finally, add the cayenne pepper, give it another good stir and a final 15 minutes of simmering before serving in bowls.

    • My Mum, who spent her childhood in Mexico, used to cook a pork based version. She used to add some (a couple of teaspoons) oregano to hers, and the aroma is magically enhanced.

      Mmmmmm...I'll have to cook up a batch tonight.....

    Hot, Hot, Hot!! We cook this in a casserole dish on our gas hob, but you could easily cook it in the oven if you prefer.
