Beef Chilifry (Sauteed Meat & Vegetables) I remember my first time making chilifry I was about 13 years old, my parents went out to run some errands and they kept me in charge of my brothers and sisters. Being the oldest it was one of my responsibilities. My mom said when she comes home she’s going to make dinner, she had taken some beef out to thaw. As soon as they left I ran into the kitchen and made chilifry. I remember watching my mom make it a couple of times so I remembered what she put in it. I made it! When they came home they were so happy I cooked dinner. My dad took his first bite of the chilifry with some kurdish bread and said it’s amazing, it’s better then moms haha It made me so happy, I know my food will never compare to my moms but it put a smile on my face. Here is how I make it it’s simple but full of flavor, you can enjoy it with some bread, rice or bulgur.
