Did a belter of a curry over the weekend. Done in the slow cooker and you don't need that many ingredients or hard to get spices either (meaning the American bros could do this).
Nepalese beef curry
Serves 4/5 (or me).
1kg of beef braising steak (tbh any cheap stewing steak will do) - chopped into 1 inch pieces
2 onions finely chopped
4 garlic cloves
1 inch piece of fresh ginger
Green chillies
4 teaspoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
800g chopped tomatoes (the tinned stuff)
2 teaspoons garam masala
200g natural yoghurt
Fresh coriander
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the beef until browned all over then tip it into the slow cooker.
Add more oil and fry the onions until golden brown. Use a cheese grater (the smallest holes) to grate the garlic and ginger. You can chop it if you like but this is quicker and better. Add the chillies chopped. Use at least two but I like it a bit hotter, and use six. Add the spices, fry for about five minutes then tip into the slow cooker.
Add chopped tomatoes and 400g of water (fill one of the tins tbh) and add to the slow cooker.
Cook on low for at least 8/10 hours, but the longer the better.
30 mins before serving stir in the yoghurt, garam masala and coriander (and more chillies if you want), bit of salt to taste and cook for half hour then serve.
I had this with pilau rice and some Peshwari naans. No pics but might have some next week as I'm doing this again this weekend
