Preparation

Step 1

- Marinate the beef in soy sauce, garlic and pepper for at least 1 hour. Drain and reserve the marinade.

- Heat the oil in a large pot.

- Fry the beef cubes until brown in all sides. Set aside.

- Add the onion and saute until limp.

- Pour in the tomato sauce, water, Worcestershire sauce and reserved marinade.

- Bring to boil and then lower the heat to simmer until the beef cubes are tender (approximately 1 1/2 hours). Add more water if needed. You should end up with an oily and thick sauce just like what is shown in the photo at the right. Skim the fat off the sauce.

- Add potatoes and carrot, cook for 10 minutes.

- Add Bell pepper and cook for another 5 minutes.

- Add the rest of the ingredients. Add salt if needed.

- Serve over rice.
