  1. Cut beef in medium pieces. Season with all ingredients down to the sugar. Marinade at least 2 hours or overnight.

  2. Heat deep pot on medium-high heat, add oil, wait a few seconds or 1 minute until hot, add beef, stir to brown for about 2 minutes. If using pressure cooker, add a little water and pressure for about 20 minutes. check if mostly tender. If using a regular pot, use enough water to cover meat and boil on high 1 1/2- 2 hours or until semi-tender. Continue adding water as needed but less when almost cooked.

  3. Prepare spinners by combining flour & salt in a bowl. Add water, first stirring with a spoon and then start kneading with your hands using extra flour as needed so the dough is not sticky. Continue kneading around 2 minutes.Pinch off about 2 Tbsp. pieces at a time and roll in palm of both hands, making ends pointy. set aside.

  4. Cut up potatoes, carrots, and onions

  5. When meat is almost cooked, add carrots in the last 20 minutes, then potatoes & spinners in the last 15 minutes along with the ketchup. Add onions in the last 5 minutes. When finished, season to taste.
