Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1.5 pounds cubed beef stew meat
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 3 cups water
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1 onion, chopped

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sprinkle beef with salt and black pepper and brown in the hot oil with garlic, about 10 minutes. Pour in water, pineapple juice, onion, tomato sauce, and tomato paste. Bring to a boil, turn heat to low, and simmer until beef is almost tender, 35 to 45 minutes.
