Method

Cooking
Add some olive oil to a saute pan or saucepan (one with a lid). One heated add in the onions, diced beef, red peppers and fry for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. The meat should be fully browned.
Add the paprika, tomato puree, chilli flakes and season with salt and pepper. Mix together and continue to fry for 2 minutes.
Add the cabbage and stir the mixture together. Fry the mixture while stirring occasionally for 3-5 minutes. Most of the oil should have burned away.
Pour the boiling water into the pan, ensuring that the water level completely covers the cabbage, plus about 1 inch above it. Put on the lid and bring to the boil.
Leave to simmer for 2.5 hours. The stew is ready when the cabbage is soft and meat tender.
