Serves: 4

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Cooking time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients:

1 lb beef stew meat

1 medium-sized eggplant, sliced into half-inch-thick slices

1 cup frozen green peas

4 cups beef broth

2 large tomatoes, diced

2 medium-sized onions, finely chopped

1 x 40 gram scoop Blackbelt Whey Protein Concentrate Raw Protein Powder

3 tbsp olive oil

2 tsp salt

¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 bay leaf

1 tsp cayenne pepper, ground

Preparation:

Generously sprinkle the eggplants with salt to reduce the bitterness. Set aside.

Preheat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Add onions and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until translucent. Add beef stew meat and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Briefly brown for 5 minutes.

Now, add eggplants, tomatoes, and green peas. Stir well and cook for 3 more minutes. Add beef broth and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and add bay leaf. Cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Stir in the Blackbelt WPC Plain Protein Powder and cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat. Optionally, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese before serving.
