Mashed Potatoes with Spiced Beef
Mashed potatoes with spiced beef pairs a creamy, cheese-enriched mash with savory fried beef from the Nigerian kitchen. The beef is seasoned with ginger, thyme, black pepper and stock cubes and left to rest before frying, which gives the meat a deeper flavor than a quick sprinkle of salt. Mushrooms, onion and red bell pepper cook down with it into a juicy topping that sits well against the soft mash.
Instructions
Toss the beef pieces with ginger powder, crumbled stock cubes, thyme and black pepper until evenly coated. Leave them in a cool place for 20 minutes so the seasoning can settle into the meat.
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and cook the seasoned beef with the sliced onion. Stir in the mushrooms and red bell pepper, add a little salt, and cook for a few minutes until the vegetables soften. Set the pan aside.
Put the diced potatoes in a pot, cover them with water and add salt. Simmer for about 20 minutes, until a knife slides into a piece with no resistance.
Drain the potatoes well and mash them. Beat in the soft cheese, butter and milk until the mash is smooth and creamy.
Spoon the mash onto plates and serve the spiced beef and vegetables alongside or on top.
