Ingredients

500 grams potatoes

2 cups beef stock

For Beef Seasoning

250 grams beef steak

5 sprigs of fresh thyme

1 tbsp onion powder

1 tsp paprika

2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp salt

One seasoning cube

Vegetable Seasoning 

1 red bell pepper

1 yellow bell pepper

1 green bell pepper

2 garlic cloves

Directions

In 1-inch cubes, cut your beef while seasoning with garlic and onion powder, paprika, salt, and a seasoning cube.

Cut your potatoes into bite-sized chunks after you have peeled off the skin.

Heat up the oil in a large to medium frying pan or wok, preferably non-stick. Then, fry your thyme and beef on each side for one minute. After it has cooked, add in your potatoes and stock. Cook for about 15 minutes on a high-level heat. While this is cooking, add your peppers and other vegetables as you wish. Add oil and fry your garlic, peppers, and tomatoes separately in a skillet.

Lastly, combine the vegetables with the potatoes and beef and stir, so they are evenly combined.
