Hearty Palestinian Simmered Beef Skillet

Assemble the ingredients: beef, cinnamon, bay leaf, paprika, turmeric, potato, bell pepper.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the beef and cook until simmered.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Palestinian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Palestinian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
