Add in the carrots, bell pepper, and garlic and stir well.

Add in the paprika, oregano, bay leaves, diced tomatoes, crushed tomato, tomato paste, and beef. Stir well.

Cook, covered in the oven, for 2 to 2½ hours.

Remove from the oven, add peas and olives, and stir well.

Place back in the oven for 15 minutes.

Remove from oven. Stir and serve.
