Jamaican Pepperpot Beef Stew Recipes

JAMAICAN PEPPERPOT BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Mix the flour, ground ginger, salt and pepper together and mix well - I use a mortar and pestle to break down the sea salt.
• Dredge the steak in the seasoned flour to coat well. A really good way to do this is add the seasoned flour and the meat to a Lock & Lock box, close the lid and shake like mad. As you can see from the picture it does a good job!
• Heat the oil and fry the meat in batches until browned. Add a little more oil if needed.
• Tip everything, including any left over seasoned flour, into a lidded oven-proof casserole dish and mix well.
• Cook for 3.5 hours at 160° C (325° F)
• Remove the bay leaf before serving.
