  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil.
  • Place the beef into a pan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the ginger, garlic, onions, and celery, and cook until vegetables soften, about 5 minutes. Mix in the curry powder, coriander powder, five-spice powder, and turmeric, and toss to evenly coat the onion mixture. Cook about 5 minutes more, and stir in the carrots, parsnips, potatoes, zucchini, and apples. Stir in the beef with its cooking liquid, raisins, and cashews, and toss to evenly blend the spices.
  • Pour the beef and vegetable mixture into the prepared roasting pan. Drizzle 1/2 cup water over the mixture. Cover the pan with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in preheated oven until heated through, about 1 hour.
