Kare-kare is a rich Filipino stew of beef simmered in a thick peanut sauce and finished with vegetables. It is often served with shrimp paste and makes a creamy, satisfying main course.
Simmer the beef with water over medium heat, covered, for 1.5 hours, until tender. Reserve the cooking liquid.
Cook the onion and garlic in oil over medium heat for 8 minutes, until softened.
Whisk the peanut butter and rice flour with some of the reserved cooking liquid, then add the mixture to the cooked onion. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 10 minutes, until thickened.
Add the cooked beef and simmer for 10 more minutes. Add the vegetables and cook over low heat for 12 more minutes. Season with salt to taste.
Serve hot with steamed white rice.
Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Reheat over low heat.
