A rich meaty curry perfect for those winter months. Beef isn’t
often used in curry, but good stewing steak (or, even better, beef
shin) works really well. Cook long and slow until the meat is
melt-in-your-mouth and the beef and potatoes are infused with
all the curry flavour.
• 500 g stewing steak
• 2 onions
• 2 potatoes
• 2 tomatoes
• 2.5 cm ginger
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1/2 tsp chilli powder
• 1 tsp garam masala
• coriander leaves
Method
Chop the beef into cubes then fry with the chopped onions until
browned.
Add the grated ginger and garlic and cook for a few minutes.
Next add the powdered spices. Fry for two minutes.
Add the chopped tomatoes, water and salt then simmer for at
least 1.5 hrs.
Finally, add the potatoes and simmer for another hour until the
sauce is nice and thick. Garnish with chopped fresh coriander
leaves.
Tips – Try using beef shin instead of stewing steak for an even
richer, meatier curry.
