If you are a bachelor with a nine-to-five job, I bet your kitchen would be your least favourite place in the house because you would hardly find time to cook (that is if you even know how to). Your second home would probably be mama-put joints, fast foods and five- star restaurants.
Moreover, if you are the type that invites your girlfriend every weekend to cook your weekly meal; you will end up spending more and of course, compensate her for her troubles. Guys, if you fall into this category, Xquisite Food has a recipe for you that is very quick and easy to prepare and I promise you will get to work on time! The beauty of corned beef stew is that you can use it to eat varieties like bread, fried plantain, boiled yam and spaghetti, which is very nutritious as breakfast.
You don’t have to go to the food-stuff market to buy the ingredients (most guys hate to do this), all you need could be bought at a nearby convenient store.
What you need
Corned beef
Tomato paste
Pepper paste
Onion
Vegetable oil
Seasoning cubes
Curry and thyme powder
Cooking Directions
- Start cooking the staple food you will serve with the stew: yam, rice, pasta or buy bread at a nearby bread seller.
- Pour vegetable oil into a dry pot.
- When the oil is heated, add diced onions and fry for a bit.
- Add the corned beef and fry till the beef turns pale. Ensure you stir constantly so that the beef will not form lumps. Tiny pieces are the best.
- Add thyme and seasoning cubes
- Add water to the same level as the contents of the pot and cook till the meat is done. This should take about 7 minutes on medium heat.
- Add pepper, curry powder, tomato and pepper paste and salt to taste.
- Stir very well, cover and leave to simmer and it’s done! So so easy!
