Caribbean STEWED BEEF

Whether you call it beef stew or stewed beef, this recipe is extremely simple and easy to put together. My recipe is cooked the Caribbean way. The meat is seasoned with fresh green seasonings, hot pepper, roucou (a natural coloring and flavoring fruit) and other simple ingredients, and it is then "chunkayed" or sauteed in caramelized sugar.
Although I've never had stewed beef before, I used the same techniques I would use for any other meat. Feel free to share your methods for cooking beef in the comments!
Ingredients:
-3 1/2 lbs of Grass-Fed Beef
-6-8 Bandhania/Chadon Beni/Culantro Leaves (*cilantro can be used as a substitute)
Mild & flavourful peppers (I used Serrano & Bird Peppers) Pimento peppers are traditionally used
-Hot Peppers (Habanero and/or Scotch Bonnet)
-1 inch piece of Ginger
-2-3 heads of Garlic
-1 large Onion
-A few sprigs of Thyme
- 1 tablespoon of Roucou/Annatto/Achiote powder or liquid
-1 1/2 tablespoons of Ketchup (or tomato paste)
-1 1/2 tablespoons of Soy Sauce
-2-3 tablespoons of Brown Sugar
-1 tablespoon of oil
-Chopped Cilantro and Chive (Scallion) for garnishing at the end.
Enjoy!

Evening..Happy Thursday.. i use to eat it a long time ago.. it looks so good.thanks for the recipe.😘👍🏽❤..i have an electric stove as well.. i got use to it now.

[@LazyCookPete]

It's good and helpful to see your sill and lorha technique close up like that. Nice knife skills too! Ginger works great with beef, a lot of Cantonese beef recipes call for ginger. It feels like an old friend (beef stew) has been given a delicious spicy and exotic lift. I can only guess how good this tastes, so I have to make this for myself 🌴🌶🇹🇹😋👍🌟

[@TasteofTrini]

Thanks uncle! My wrists prevent me from using it every single day. I love it! The food gets that ancestral touch when I use it. That's cool! I feel like I should've julienned the ginger instead of grating it. As always, thanks for your continued love and support here!

[@saritaali1435]

Mouthwatering! Exactly how I cook it excepting for the serrano peppers

[@casmitacompton1723]

[@Alina-qp6hw]

You did a great job, it looks delicious! Do you have a recipe for the provisions? Thank you!

[@carolking8835]

Yummy and I am sooo hungry 😛. Nice pairing with the dumplings and cassava. As an added flavour enhancer add a little green tomatoes and/or Mexican tomatias. it takes your stew another notch up. Enjoy🍲 and take care ❤.

[@njhendritrini3234]

Your videos make me hungry and makes me homesick. But I love that.

Thank you so much!

[@mahaliarmoe]

Looks awesome! So nice to see a sill!!! (Sp?) I do mine the same way. I'm sure you already know this but I love using Fresno peppers as a substitute for pimento. I'm hungry now......

[@camilleharding5834]

Lovely presentation sis..thanks for sharing..at times i add a cinnamon atick for about half of the cooking process.

[@AdinaGajadhar]

I can't wait to make this on the weekend. Do you have a recipe for the dumplings and provisions

[@michaelseelal4736]

Hi love nice 😘 yum yum yum will try it

[@AFlavourforLife]

Resh, this is amazing, what a great take on stewed beef! Ha the rocks at work, I have a similar set up for breaking the acorns. Such lovely simple and fresh ingredients, as I don't have beef I think I would substitute with deer meat. Fab video xx

[@TasteofTrini]

Thanks Em! I saw the set up and it looked similar! Sounds good! I know you'll make it tasty. Keep posting those awesome videos!

[@anisa_1473]

Looks great. I usually add some Worcestershire sauce in my stews also...but I wash the beef with flour because I find the vinegar tends to stiffen the beef.

[@sallygoolabsingh4999]

Another great dish Reshmi, the provision and dumpling looks very tasty👌👌👌 take care💞

Yuh look like a pro 👍🏽

[@zaidogeer5957]

Very nice

[@einsaan]

That looks yummy. In Pakistan we normally stew meat especially beef and goat in Pressure cookers. That not only helps in reducing the cooking time to less than half but also tenderizes the meat and infuses the spices and herbs in the meat without drying it out.

[@lillyandrews8557]

Looking good,love beef peleau

Thank you! Hope all is good! Long time no see.

Looks great for a first time, I don't eat beef either but from my understanding it's similar to how you stew pork or any other meat. Dumplings and Cassava look rel tasty too.

Don’t you use Worcestershire sauce in your curries and stews? I use it all the time, it brings a nice flavour.

[@TasteofTrini]

I like to add it to mined meat. I'll add some to my stew next time. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@inderneilboseroychowdhury]

Yep and with Calf meat this will be so tender and then I will load it up with lots of Habaneros..Only for myself to sweat.. Though my Authentic homemade and freshly grounded spice Beef Goulash is very popular among the german Neighbours and colleagues including my wife..Hungarian and Gypsy Goulash.. I can prepare both..

[@gailjacob6017]

Be careful with those hot pepper before they burn ur hands

[@harmoniumteacher]

I thought you were Hindu? And you doing beef!

[@TasteofTrini]

I'm spiritual, not religious. I also believe that it's about what's in your heart and not your stomach. I've seen people who are Hindus and extremely religious, but their mind and heart are hateful and toxic. That's why I chose the spiritual path. I was born a Hindu, went to a Muslim primary school and a Catholic high school. I respect all religions and partake when I need to. My parents never forced Hinduism on us, and instead let us choose the path that we wanted. Have a great evening🙏🏽

[@harmoniumteacher]

Taste of Trini That's not a logical reply and it's really a cop out . If you identify as Hindu then the expectation is you do not eat beef nor promote it. If however you are not Hindu you can simply state that. The spiritual vs religious argument is usually just semantics. Also, whether there are others who profess to be Hindu but have dark motives or hate in their hearts should not affect your actions if you are truly spiritual. If you don't believe in SOMETHING you will fall for ANYTHING!

[@sanajakumars9359]

With all my due respect ...what anyone eats is their personal choice but .I really hope you had removed the OM beads from.your hand whilst handling the beef......otherwise its blasphemy to Hindus n Hinduism.
