Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Beef (chuck or stewing beef), cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 large Yellow onion, diced
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons Curry powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 can (13.5 oz) Coconut milk
• 1 cup Beef broth or water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 medium Potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
• 4 cups Cooked rice (to serve)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the cubed beef with salt and pepper. Add the beef to the pot in batches, searing on all sides until browned. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft and golden.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir well to coat the onions in the spices.

Step 6

Mix in the tomato paste and cook for another minute to deepen the flavors.

Step 7

Return the seared beef to the pot, along with the coconut milk and beef broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 8

Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer gently for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 9

After 40 minutes, add the diced potatoes to the pot. Stir well to combine and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes, or until the beef and potatoes are tender.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper as needed.

Step 11

Serve the curry beef hot over cooked rice, garnished with fresh cilantro.
