• 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the beef cubes to the pot and brown them on all sides, working in batches if necessary, for about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the curry powder, cumin, coriander, and turmeric powder. Cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring the beef is well coated with spices.

Step 6

Pour in the coconut milk and beef stock, and add the bay leaf. Stir well to combine.

Step 7

Season with salt and black pepper, then bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Add the cubed potatoes to the pot and continue to simmer until they are tender, about 20-30 minutes.

Step 10

Check the seasoning and adjust if necessary. If the curry is too thick, you can add a bit more stock or water to reach your desired consistency.

Step 11

Once the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked through, remove from heat.

Step 12

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with steamed rice or warm naan bread.
