    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon ground coriander
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1 teaspoon ground turmeric
    2 lbs beef stew meat
    4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    1 cup butternut squash, chopped
    1/2 red onion, chopped
    2 garlic cloves, smashed
    2 cups beef stock
    1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
    1 tablespoon sherry wine vinegar
    1 bay leaf
    4 cups cooked yellow rice

Stir in stock, tomatoes, vinegar, and bay leaf; bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of Dutch oven. Add stew meat; cover and cook, stirring occasionally until tender, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
