Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cut the meat into flat pieces about 1–1.5 cm thick and weighing 100–150 g. Tenderize the pieces.

Step 2

In a saucepan or deep skillet with a thick bottom, heat the oil and sauté the pieces of meat for 1–2 minutes on each side until browned. Season the meat with salt and transfer it to another dish.

Step 3

In the same saucepan where the meat was fried, sauté the chopped onion until golden, then layer the pieces of meat on top. Julienne the carrot or grate it on a coarse grater and place it over the meat.

Step 4

Pour boiling water or hot broth into the saucepan, add the tomato paste, and stew the meat covered for 1.5–2 hours. About 15–20 minutes before it's done, add the rinsed dried apricots and season to taste.
