Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Beef
Soak the dried beef in water for about 30 minutes to rehydrate it. Then drain and cut into small pieces.
2. Sauté the Onion
In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
3. Add Garlic and Spices
Add minced garlic, paprika, and cumin to the pot. Stir for a minute until fragrant.
4. Incorporate Tomato Paste
Add the tomato paste to the pot and stir well to combine with the onion and spices.
5. Add Water and Beef
Pour in the water and add the rehydrated beef pieces. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
6. Mix in Chickpea Flour
Gradually whisk in the chickpea flour to avoid lumps, stirring continuously.
7. Simmer the Mixture
Let the mixture simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until it thickens. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
8. Serve
Once thickened, remove from heat and serve warm with rice or bread.
