Indonesian Beef Skillet
Beef On The Stove Top
Prep time:
15 minutesCooking time:
20 minutes“Curry powder is a great staple spice to have on hand. It keeps fresh for about 3 months in the cabinet so, use it often. One-half teaspoon lifts an ordinary salad dressing, cream soup or sauce to another level.”
