YEMENITE BEEF SOUP RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Make Hawaij: Add turmeric, cumin and pepper to a jar with a tight fitting lid and shake to thoroughly combine. (Hawaij will keep in pantry up to 3 months.) In a large bowl, combine short ribs, 2 tablespoons schmaltz, 2 tablespoons hawaij and salt, mixing well to evenly coat meat. Transfer to a plate and loosely cover with parchment paper. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight. Heat remaining schmaltz in a lidded large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Cook short ribs, turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer meat to a plate and set aside. Decrease heat to medium-low and add onions, garlic and 2 tablespoons hawaij. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have softened but not browned, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook 5 minutes more. Add reserved short ribs, chicken stock and cilantro and parsley sprigs. Bring to a simmer, then cook, covered, 2 hours. Add potatoes and continue cooking until they are tender, about 20 minutes. Serve soup in bowls, topped with cilantro and parsley leaves.
