Beef Kare-Kare

Beef kare-kare is a traditional Filipino stew known for its rich and creamy peanut sauce. Made with tender beef, often including oxtail or tripe, the dish is cooked with vegetables like eggplant, bok choy, and string beans. The peanut-based sauce gives it a distinct nutty flavor, which is balanced by a side of bagoong (fermented shrimp paste) for added saltiness. Served with rice, beef kare-kare is a beloved comfort food, especially during family feasts and celebrations.
