Remarkable
Simple cooking rends beef tender and the ginger gives it a very different flavor from the characteristic Western cuisine. The name for a stewed beef dish in Madagascar is hen'omby. This ginger stewed beef recipe is to be enjoyed with a good amount of boiled rice, a small bowl of rougai the really spicy sauce typical in the Indic Ocean area, and a few of the pickled vegetables known as achards, preferably tomatoes and onions.
