Ingredients

• 1 Cup Beef
• 1 Cup Onion
• 1 Cup Carrots
• 1 Cup Potatoes
• 1 Cup Pumpkin
• 1 Cup Dried Apricots
• 1 Cup Beef Stock
• 1 Cup Salt
• 1 Cup Pepper

Method

1. Brown the Beef: In a large pot, brown the beef cubes. Remove and set aside.
2. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, cook the onion until translucent. Add carrots, potatoes, and pumpkin, cooking for a few minutes.
3. Simmer: Return the beef to the pot. Add broth and dried apricots. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 1-2 hours, until the beef is tender.
4. Serve: Enjoy hot, with a crusty piece of bread.
5. Pro Tips:
6. Brown the beef in batches to ensure it gets a good sear, which adds depth to the stew's flavor.
7. Adding the fruits towards the end of cooking preserves their texture and adds a subtle sweetness to the dish.
