Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the Beef

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed beef and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 3

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, okra, bay leaves, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove bay leaves before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot over rice or with crusty bread.
