Beef Kare-Kare is a classic Filipino stew known for its rich, nutty flavor and vibrant presentation. This dish features tender chunks of beef, often including oxtail and tripe, simmered in a savory peanut sauce. It is complemented by hearty vegetables such as bok choy, eggplant, and green beans, and traditionally served with shrimp paste (bagoong) on the side for added umami. Kare-Kare is a source of protein from beef, while its vegetables provide essential vitamins and fiber. However, it may be high in fats from the meat cuts and peanut sauce, particularly when consumed in large portions or with excessive shrimp paste. Its origin is rooted in Philippine cuisine, often enjoyed during festive gatherings and family meals. Moderation and balance can make Kare-Kare a flavorful and culturally enriching addition to a well-rounded diet.
