Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Season the beef with salt and pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon each). Add the beef to the heated oil along with the beef bouillon cube, onion, and garlic and cook until browned, about 5 minutes; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking, stirring, until all the beef is browned, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  2. Combine tomato sauce, beef broth, tomato paste, ginger, sugar, 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, and 1 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil.

  3. Return the beef to the pot and add the okra. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the okra is tender, 25–30 minutes. Add more broth or water if the stew thickens too much.
