Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef stew meat and brown on all sides, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
-
In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for another minute until fragrant.
-
Sprinkle the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper over the onion mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes to toast the spices.
-
Return the browned beef to the pot and pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices. Stir to combine everything and let it simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Pour in the beef broth and coconut milk, stirring gently. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for 1 ½ - 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.
-
Season the Beef Curry with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can simmer the curry uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
-
Serve the Beef Curry hot over a bed of fluffy rice or accompanied by warm naan bread. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro for a burst of freshness and color.
