Make this delicious South African Beef and beer stew (poitjie) recipe today.

This incredibly delicious Beef Stew made in Beer is a South African favorite. I usually make it in a cast iron pot over the coals but for the sake of our overseas viewers living in colder climates, I decided to do it in a conventional cast iron pot on the stove. You are welcome to play around with the quantities to get the exact taste you desire. Depending on how thick you coat the beef with the cake flour and Paprika, you may need to add more moisture during the cooking process. I usually use more beef stock if this becomes necessary, but on occasion I have also added more beer and the result was great. In this video I decided to serve it on rice, but it tastes just as good on mashed potatoes. Give it a try and let me know how it goes in the comments!
