This simple dish keeps the beef the star of the show, the creamy yet light smoky paprika sauce with just a hint of thyme and garlic is very morish! This one makes a lovely family meal that everyone will enjoy.

Cooking time :

400 g

heaped tbsp natural Greek yogurt,

2 tsp

smoked paprika,

2 cloves

garlic, sliced finely,

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Add the cooking oil to a large saucepan. Warm over a medium high heat. Add in the beef plus the flour. Mix together and fry until browned on all sides. Season well with salt and pepper.

* Step 2

Add the carrot and the onions. Fry for around 4 minutes then add the tomato paste and the smoked paprika. Stir through. Next add in the garlic. Fry until fragrant, this should only take around 20-30 seconds, ensure you don't burn the garlic or it'll taste bitter.

* Step 3

Pour in the beef stock. Bring to a simmer. Add the thyme leaves and bell peppers. Stir through. Simmer for about 45-50 minutes until the beef is tender and the sauce has reduced down, add a dash of water if needed whilst it simmers if it becomes too dry - you want to be left with a thick gravy.
