Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Boneless sirloin steak, trimmed
3 tablespoons Corn oil
1 large Spanish onion, sliced
1 Garlic clove, crushed
1 teaspoon Ground ginger
1 teaspoon Ground cumin
1 teaspoon Ground coriander
1 teaspoon Chili seasoning
⅔ cup Shredded coconut
2 teaspoons Light-brown sugar
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
1¼ cup Beef stock
Thin slivers red bell pepper
Chopped green chilies
Small onion slices

Directions

Cut steak in ½" thick strips. Heat oil in a saucepan. Add Spanish onion slices and garlic and fry gently until soft. Add beef and fry, stirring, until brown.

Add spices to beef and cook 2 minutes. Add coconut, brown sugar, lemon juice and beef stock; stir well. Simmer gently, uncovered, 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until mixture is thickened and dry. Stir mixture more frequently towards end of cooking time to prevent sticking. Garnish with slivers of bell pepper, green chilies and small slices onion.

NOTE: If you prefer a more moist mixture, cook 20-25 minutes instead of 30-35 minutes.
