Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season ground beef with salt and pepper; cook and stir in batches in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Remove meat to a colander to drain and then set aside in a large bowl. Drain and discard grease from skillet between batches.
• While meat is cooking, combine stewed tomatoes, tomato paste, chili powder, sugar, and garlic salt in the bowl of a food processor; blend until smooth.
• Heat olive oil in a 16-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add celery, onions, green pepper, red pepper, jalapeno peppers, and garlic.

Simmer for 1 hour.

Steps:

• I love deep-fried crispy chilli beef but deep-frying is not always healthy. So I have come up with a light but tasty alternative that cooks the beef in a fast and furious way - on the wok! It is seasoned with some dried chilli spices and then placed on a bed of baby spinach leaves and dressed with a delicious sweet and tangy dressing.
• This is one of my favourite fast, delicious healthy suppers and I hope it gets your thumbs up. You can reduce the amount of sugar if you like.
• For the dressing:
• To make the sweet and sour dressing: Combine the light soy sauce, lemon juice, orange juice, groundnut oil, sugar, and honey, in a bowl. Whisk to blend the ingredients, and then add the very finely chopped cucumber, and chile. Stir, and set aside.
• For the beef:
• Heat a wok over high heat, and add the groundnut oil. Add the beef to the hot wok, and stir quickly. Deglaze with the rice wine or sherry, and cook for a few seconds.
• Add the crushed dried chile flakes, light soy sauce, and white pepper. Cook to your preference: 1 minute longer for well-done or less than a minute for medium.
• Dress the serving plates with some of the baby spinach leaves, and sliced pak choy. Spoon some of the chile beef into the middle of the platter, and then drizzle generous amounts of the dressing over the top. Sprinkle the dish with finely diced mangos, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, brown steak in oil. Remove and set aside. Add the ground beef, onions and garlic to the pan; cook and stir over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Drain., Return steak to the pan; stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, uncovered, for 2 hours or until beef is tender.

Steps:

• Day 1: Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl.
• In a separate bowl, combine the sugar with 1 tbls plus 1 tsp of the seasoning mix.
• Cut the meat into strips about 1/2 inch thick by 2 inches long.
• Season the meat evenly with the sugar-seasoning mixture and refrigerate in a covered bowl or plastic zipper bag for as long as possible, but at least overnight.
• Day 2: Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a 5-quart pot over high heat just until the oil begins to smoke, about 4 minutes.
• Add just enough of the meat strips to cover the pot bottom in a single layer.
• Cook the meat quickly, stirring constantly, until it is browned on all sides, and remove it from the pot immediately.
• Add the remaining oil if necessary, and cook the remaining meat.
• Add the remaining seasoning mix and all the remaining ingredients except the coconut milk, and then scrape the bottom of the pot vigorously until the brown bits are loosened.
• Cover and cook over high heat for 5 minutes.
• Return the meat to the pot and stir in the coconut milk.
