How to Make Mafe Senegalese Beef Stew
- Whisk together 1 cup peanut butter and 4 cups beef broth in a bowl; set aside.
- Season beef cubes generously with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add beef cubes in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot, and brown on all sides. This will take about 5-7 minutes per batch.
- Remove browned beef from the pot and set aside.
- Add 1 large chopped onion, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 2-3 finely chopped serrano peppers (adjust to taste) to the pot. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the peanut butter and broth mixture, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Return the browned beef to the pot along with 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes (with their juices), 1 sprig of fresh thyme, and 1 bay leaf.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is very tender. Stir occasionally.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Remove the thyme sprig and bay leaf before serving.
- Serve the Mafe Senegalese Beef Stew hot over 4 cups cooked rice.
