Cook your beef stew for 1 hour 30 minutes also add your beef stock.

Chop your onion and your garlic cloves

Once your meat is soft and tender now you can start to add your onion, garlic and your dry spices. As you busy stirring the meat and all the spices has mix well with the meat.

While the meat is simmering slow on your stove prepare your tomatoes by grating and once it is grated mix the tomatoes with tomato sauce also add that sugar to kill the sour taste from the tomatoes.

Then add tomatoes to the meat and stir and cover the pot to simmer for few minutes once it's all mixed well prepare your flour and Brown onion soup with water and pour over meat it will cook for 4 minutes and thicken. Then your tomatoes gravy stew is ready to be served.

It can be served with Rice, Dumpling (idombolo) and Pap. You will see some veggies on this stew, cause I have left-over veggies from yesterday I then decide to add then on my stew.
