Thiou à la Viande

== Description ==
The biggest bargain in Dakar was this stew everyone called "Chew." We found it in a tiny restaurant off on a side street seating just ten or twelve people, and the price was just 35 cents. Served in a huge enamel bowl, there was enough stew for three. It was delicious.
== Ingredients ==
* 1 cup chopped onions
* 1 tbsp salt
* ½ tsp black pepper, coarse-ground 
* ¼ tsp thyme, whole
* ¼ tsp coriander seed
* ¼ cup oil
* 2 lbs stew beef in ½-inch cubes
* 1 cup tomato paste
* 3 cups water
* ½ cup vinegar (white)
* ½ lb white potatoes cut in 2-inch cubes
* ½ lb white turnips, cut in 2 inch cubes
* ½ lb sweet potatoes, cut in 2-inch cubes
* 8 cabbage wedges, 1 inch wide at bottom of wedge (about 1 lb )
