Beef and Onions with Cumin image

A very tasty stew that goes beautifully with rice and a crisp mixed salad. I got the basic recipe from a book purchased from a second hand shop and have adapted it. I sometimes add mushrooms and also serve it with a dollop of sour cream.

I'm a big fan of cumin, so I was excited to try this recipe. It did not disappoint! The cumin gives the beef a really nice flavor.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to give it more flavor. I add a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, a teaspoon of garlic powder, and a half teaspoon of black pepper.

This recipe was a waste of time and ingredients. The beef was tough and the onions were burnt.

I've tried this recipe a few times and I can never get the beef to cook properly. It's always either too tough or too dry.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. It needed more seasoning.

This was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll probably cut back on the cumin next time.
