Mafé, or maafe, is a traditional West African peanut stew that can be made with beef, lamb, chicken, seafood, or just vegetables. This oven version of mafé features succulent diced beef slowly simmered in a nutty peanut butter sauce. Finish this dish in the oven, you will get melt-in-your-mouth tender beef and perfectly thickened, splatter-free gravy. It is easy to make and tastes even better the next day. Serve it with rice or couscous, but if you are watching your carbs, you can easily enjoy this with cauliflower rice. If you have a peanut allergy or simply want to experiment, you can use almond or cashew butter.

Spezzatino di Manzo - Italian Beef Stew

Spezzatino di manzo is a classic Italian beef stew in a rich sauce of red wine, beef broth, tomato paste or passata, herbs and vegetables. It’s great to serve over polenta, pasta or crusty bread to soak up every bit of the sauce! It’s a great make-ahead dish that tastes even better as it sits, and lasts for a few days in the fridge. This comforting one-pot meal features countless regional and family variations across Italy. My version is rather simple without pancetta, but you can add some at the start for smoky depth. Use regular mushrooms if you can’t find chanterelles.

Bò Kho, a hearty and incredibly cozy Vietnamese beef stew, is made by simmering seared bite-sized beef chunks and carrots in an aromatic broth infused with the fish sauce, lemongrass, ginger, star anise, garlic, bay leaf and five-spice until meltingly tender and fall-apart. Marinate overnight for best results. Enjoy the stew as it is, with a crispy banh mi, over rice or noodles.

Black Garlic Beef Short Ribs

This delicious dish has two of my favourite ingredients - beef short ribs and black garlic. It’s a dish that when done right, falls off the bone and melts in your mouth, and a dish that promises to deliver both comfort and flavour. The rich, caramel and molasses flavours of black garlic pair perfectly with the deep beef flavour of short ribs. Enjoy them over some rice, with root vegetables or simply with a glass of robust red wine. You can take the meat off the bone for easy eating, or leave on for the beautiful presentation.
Black garlic is what truly sets this short rib casserole apart. It’s regular garlic that has been aged and fermented, resulting in a softer, molasses-like texture with a sweet and tangy flavour devoid of the usual garlic pungency. It is not just a flavour enhancer but also a powerhouse of antioxidants. It is everything you love about garlic but even better.

This tasty Asian inspired marinade is quick to prepare and works beautifully with any cut of steak and will result in steaks that are savoury, sweet, and loaded with flavour. This is another wonderful option to add to your rotation of Thai food to make at home. Serve it with a fresh seasonal salad of your choice. The bird's eye chillies are significantly hotter than common red chillies, deseed them if you prefer a milder sauce.

These savoury braided buns are an excellent way to repurpose leftover spaghetti sauce, creating a deliciously comforting and satisfying meal or snack--a unique twist on traditional yeast buns. If your meat sauce is a bit runny, simmer it, uncovered, until it has thickened. Cool before using. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze them and they’ll stay fresh for up to three months. You can easily reheat them at 180C/350F for 15-20 minutes. For refrigerated buns, reduce the heating time to 10 minutes.

Thai Massaman Beef Curry

Massaman curry is a classic Thai curry of Muslim origin and traditionally it’s loaded with potatoes. I have simply skipped them and used 2 onions, but you can use radishes, kohlraib or even cucumber instead. If you are short in time, use a ready-made massaman curry paste. This recipe calls for braising beef, however, you can make this with beef ribs, lamb shanks, chicken, pork or even tofu too. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly. If you are sensitive to peanuts, simply omit them or use cashew nuts instead.
Massaman means "Muslim" and is derived from a now-archaic English term "Mussulman," highlighting its origins as a fusion dish brought by Persian or Malay traders.

These scrumptious Turkish pastries are made with spiced ground beef, toasted pinenuts and onions rolled in yufka sheets. They are perfect for parties as well as for brunch or dinner. Serve with a salad if you like.
Börek (pronounced "boo-rek"), aka burek or byrek, is a type of savoury pastry made with paper-thin yufka/filo dough layered or rolled with various fillings like meat, cheese, or vegetables, or sweet version with nuts and fruit, then baked or fried until golden. Originating in the Ottoman era, börek is a staple of Turkish cuisine and beloved across the Balkans and Middle East. It can be baked as a large dish and sliced into portions, or shaped into individual pastries. The word “börek” originates from the Turkish verb bürmek, meaning “to twist” or “to wrap,” quite fitting for a dish that typically involves layers of dough twisted or folded around fillings.

The slow-cooked beef stew with chestnuts is a warming, comforting casserole packed with rich flavours and hearty ingredients. It combines tender chunks of beef chuck roast, distinctively robust Pancetta with the earthy sweetness of chestnuts and an aromatic blend of thyme, cinnamon and tangerine peel. It tastes wonderful with a green vegetable, buttered egg noodles, or some celeriac/potato mash and benefits from being made a day or two in advance, or frozen, which works beautifully. You can also make this in your slow cooker for 4-6 hours at slow.

Balsamic Beef Short Ribs with Butter Beans and Sugar Beet Greens

Bone-in beef short ribs braised, low and slow in a mixture of balsamic vinegar, shallots, thyme, beef broth and coconut sugar until they are fall-off-the-bone tender and juicy, perfect for serving atop a Parmesan mashed pumpkin-- a hearty dish that's comforting on a chilly evening. You can also make this in a slow cooker for 4-5 hours at low, then thicken the sauce with a little cornstarch. I served it with a Parmesan mashed pumpkin to keep it low-carb, but you can enjoy it with mashed potatoes, parsnip, or cheesy polenta if carbs ain’t an issue for you. Replace some beef stock with red wine or dark beer if you like.
