This is a deeply flavoured, warming winter dish. Inspired by the flavours of Morocco, this dish combines sufficient complex carbohydrates and fibre with protein and vegetables to make a balanced, satisfying meal. It is also iron-rich with heme iron from the beef and non-heme iron from the apricots.

Moroccan Beef

  • 500g topside beef, chopped

  • 1 red chilli, chopped

  • 1 1/2 tsp coriander seeds

  • 1 cup canned chickpeas

  • 1 cinnamon stick (optional)

  • 1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, chopped

  • 2 carrots, chopped

  • 1/2 cup dried apricots

  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)

  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 1 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 2 large brown onions

  • 1 cup low-sodium beef stock

Mix together the meat, spices, garlic, chilli, and sundried tomatoes in a large bowl. Make sure the meat is well coated with the other ingredients. With a little olive oil, transfer meat mix to large pot. Add the remaining ingredients and cook, covered over low heat for two hours. Remove the lid for the last half hour of cooking to evaporate any excess liquid. Serve warm and enjoy.
