Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 2 cups Low sodium beef broth
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons Curry powder
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 pound Beef, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the tomato paste, curry powder, turmeric, coriander, cumin, and chili powder. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

Step 6

Pour in the low sodium beef broth and coconut milk, mixing well to combine all the ingredients.

Step 7

Increase the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 8

Once simmering, reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it cook for about 25-30 minutes until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened.

Step 9

Stir occasionally to ensure it does not stick to the bottom of the pan. Adjust seasoning with black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Serve the beef curry sauce hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro, over rice, quinoa, or your preferred side.
