Beef Suqaar

Step 1

Fry the onion, garlic, and bell pepper in vegetable oil until soft and the house smells like glory. Then (and only then!) add the beef, broth, carrots, and potatoes. Finally, splash in the broth.

Step 2

Simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. The mixture will start out thin and soupy, but gradually thicken into more of a gravy. Stir frequently, especially as the mixture begins to dry out.

Step 3

If the meat is tough, add some more liquid and keep cooking until it’s completely tender. Garnish with a handful of chopped cilantro and a smile.
