EASY BEEF CURRY

Another find from the paper, recipe written by Jeremy Vincent. This is wonderful Indian style meal, easy to make and I think is better than most you get at any Indian restaurant. I am posting as written, although I did make a few changes as I used light coconut cream and added parsley instead of coriander.

EASY BEEF CURRY

The beef curry I make is kind of a mix between Indian curry and Thai curry. It sounds a little odd, but we absolutely love it! It reheats well, too, and it can be made ahead and kept hot in a crock pot. It is a very saucy curry; if you don't like a lot of sauce, then cut back to one can of coconut milk. The toppings are only suggestions--pick and choose what you like or try something new!

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 -4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 onions, peeled and thinly sliced
2 -3 lbs beef top round steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 -4 tablespoons Madras curry powder (we prefer Green Ship brand, which we buy at the local Indian market)
water
2 (14 ounce) cans coconut milk (light or regular, but not coconut cream)
hot jasmine rice (or whatever kind of rice you like) or basmati rice (or whatever kind of rice you like)
chutney (I like mango chutney)
chopped hard-boiled egg (separate white and yolk for a nicer presentation)
chopped green onion
raisins (we use golden raisins)
chilled canned mandarin oranges, drained
roasted peanuts or roasted cashews

Steps:

  • In a large, deep skillet or chef's pan, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Saute onions until tender. Add curry powder, toss to coat, and cook 1-2 minutes longer.
  • Add beef and brown 3-4 minutes, scraping pan often. If curry powder sticks to bottom, add a little water to deglaze whenever needed to prevent scorching.
  • Add about 1 pint of water and mix in, scraping any bits off the bottom of the pan in the process. Bring just to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until most of the water has cooked off.
  • Remove from heat and stir in both cans of coconut milk. Return to heat and heat over medium-low heat until just beginning to simmer.
  • Serve in bowls over rice, with desired toppings.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Chop your vegetables and meat ahead of time to make the cooking process go more smoothly.
  • Use a well-seasoned pan: A cast iron or stainless steel pan that has been seasoned with oil will help prevent the beef from sticking.
  • Brown the beef in batches: If you try to brown all the beef at once, it will steam instead of brown. Browning the beef in batches will give it a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you add the vegetables to the pan, don't overcrowd it. Otherwise, they will steam instead of sautéing.
  • Use a flavorful curry paste: The curry paste is what will give your curry its flavor, so choose one that you like. There are many different types of curry paste available, so you can find one that suits your taste.
  • Simmer the curry for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.

Conclusion:

This easy beef curry is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover beef. Serve it with rice or your favorite flatbread and enjoy!
