Add the onion and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in paprika, cumin, and tomato paste; cook for 1 minute. Add tomato and beef stock, cover, and braise over low heat for 50 minutes until beef is fork-tender.
4
Simmer
Stir in the okra and simmer uncovered over medium-low heat for 12 minutes until okra is tender but holds its shape.
