Rajasthani Beef Curry

A vibrant, fiery dish that offers a gorgeous alternative to the more traditional madras. Here at Spice Kitchen, we love it with extra heat!

INGREDIENTS

Yoghurt Mix

  • 300g natural yoghurt
  • 2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 3 tsp ground coriander
  • 3 tsp red chilli powder
  • 2-3 tsp salt

Sauce

  • 4 tbsp ghee (or butter)
  • 1 tsp cloves
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 5 green cardamom pods
  • 3 black cardamom pods
  • 7 tbsp chopped garlic
  • 2 large onions
  • 800g diced beef
  • 15 dried red chillies, soaked in warm water 700ml water
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Chopped coriander to garnish

METHOD

  1. Whisk the yoghurt until smooth, mix with the spices and salt and set aside.
  2. Heat the ghee in a large pan and add the whole spices and bay leaves. Once they sizzle, add the onions and garlic and sauté until golden.
  3. Add the beef and fry on high heat until browned all over. Add the soaked dried chillies together with the yoghurt mix and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated.
  4. Pour in the water and cook on medium heat until the beef is tender. We recommend you cook for an hour before checking the meat, and if not soft and tender, add another 30 minutes.
  5. Serve with rice or naan and the chopped coriander garnish.
