- 2 pounds stew beef, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 3 beef bouillon cubes
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons curry powder

In a Dutch oven, place the stew beef, bouillon cubes, salt, crushed red pepper, chili powder, chili flakes, curry powder, and water. Stir and bring to a rapid boil.

I made this recipe for my church's international potluck and it was a smash hit! The peanut butter hits it just right. It may not be the most beautiful dish but it taste wonderful.

I love this recipe, make it pretty often and have recommended it to friends, who also love it!
The only thing is, aren't chili flakes and crushed red pepper the same thing?
Peace

My parents were native of South Carolina and this was a staple in my home since I was a child, I have cooked this recipe for more than 40 years, my grown sons love this recipe since their childhoods. My ancestors were from West African hence the African feel of "Collard Green Stew". I've also used chicken and fish in this recipe, but I never tried this recipe with pork. This is one of my favorite dishes it is soothing and when cooked right the food is colorful like Africa and beautiful to look at. Best served over rice (GeeChee south east coast island of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
