Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• 2 pounds stewing beef, cut into chunks
• 3 medium carrots, sliced
• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1 14-ounce can canned coconut milk
• 2 cups beef stock
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until the aroma is released.

Step 3

Add the cinnamon stick, ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir the spices into the onion mixture until well combined and aromatic, about 1 minute.

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chunks of stewing beef to the pot. Sear the meat on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add the sliced carrots and cubed sweet potatoes to the pot, stirring to combine with the beef and spices.

Step 6

Pour in the coconut milk, beef stock, and tomato paste. Stir everything together, ensuring the tomato paste is fully incorporated.

Step 7

Season with sea salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover.

Step 8

Let the curry simmer gently for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and the flavors have melded together. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

Step 9

Remove the cinnamon stick from the curry before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy your hearty Paleo meat curry with a side of your choice, like cauliflower rice or a simple green salad.
