    Recipe



    In a large soup pot, heat the oil and brown the stew beef.
    Add the onions and garlic and cook for about 5 minutes, then add the chili powder, the New Mexico and Ancho chile powders, paprika, cumin and bay leaf; cook, stirring frequently, another 5 minutes.
    Add the broth, tomatoes and beer and simmer, covered, for 2 hours.
    Add the beans, cilantro, lemon juice, molasses, oregano and thyme and simmer another 30 minutes.
    Stir in enough masa harina (to which a little water has been added to make it blend well) to thicken and simmer just long enough to absorb the masa and thicken up a bit.
    Serve with chopped onion, some grated Cheddar cheese and some fresh cilantro.
