Instructions

1
Pat the beef chunks dry with paper towels and season all over with the salt. Heat the coconut oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear the beef on two sides until deeply browned, about 3–4 minutes per side. Transfer the seared beef to the slow cooker insert.
2
Reduce the skillet heat to medium. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 4–5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the turmeric, Ceylon cinnamon, oregano, and thyme and cook for 30 seconds, until the spices are fragrant and evenly coat the aromatics.
