    Recipe Introduction


    Here is a simple yet exotic one-dish meal that features all four food
    groups: fruits, vegetables, meats, and sauces.

    List of Ingredients




    Beef + Dried Fruit Stew

    2 cups (500 ml) chopped dried fruits such
    as apricots, peaches, pears, and prunes
    2 cups (500 ml) warm water
    Juice and finely chopped zest of 1 lemon
    3 Tbs (45 ml) butter or olive oil
    2 lbs (900 g) lean beef stew meat
    2 tsp (10 ml) ground cinnamon
    2 tsp (10 ml) curry powder
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    2 packages (10 oz, 280 g each) frozen spinach,
    thawed and thoroughly drained
    Boiled white rice

    Combine the dried fruits, water, lemon juice and zest in a small bowl
    and soak the fruit for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a
    heavy pot over moderate heat and saute the beef until browned. Add
    the fruit mixture, cinnamon, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Bring to
    a boil and reduce the heat. Simmer tightly covered for 1 1/2 hours.
    Add the spinach and cook an additional 30 minutes. Serve over rice.
    Serves 4 to 6.
