Instructions:

1. Add olive oil to a large pan and then add ginger and garlic paste. Cook the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds and then add the beef.

2. When the beef is no longer pink, add the onions and chili. Continue cooking the beef for about 5 minutes. Keep cooking it until the water from the beef is no longer there and the onions have softened.

3. Add the tomato paste and salt, red chili powder, ground cumin, ground coriander and black pepper.

4. Cook for another 5 minutes until the tomato paste turns a darker color.

5. Add enough water to cover the meat. Make sure the meat is fully submerged and bring the water to a boil. 

6. Lower the heat to medium/low and cover your pan. Let the meat cook on low heat until the beef is completely tender. The amount of time depends on the cut of meat you use and size.

7. To finish, top with thinly sliced red onion, serrano chillies, fresh cilantro and thinly sliced ginger.
