Instructions
Heat the oil. Add salt and any spices you're using. Stir constantly for half a minute, being careful not to let the spices get smoky. Place onion in the pan and turn down the heat and cook at least 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and red pepper and continue to cook.
Add beef or lamb and brown the meat. Add the vegetables and a few tablespoons of water or coconut milk, just enough to steam. Cover and cook 10-15 minutes until vegetables are soft, adding a little water or coconut milk as needed. Flavor balance with a little lemon juice, salt and black pepper.
Variations: You can replace the beef or lamb with ground pork, chicken, or turkey. You can modify the flavor by using Italian, Middle Eastern, or Curry spice mixes. Vegetarian/Vegan option: omit the meat and add cooked beans, chickpeas, or lentils.
