Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef stew meat, cubed
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

  2. Add the Spices: Stir in curry powder, cumin, turmeric, and tomato paste. Cook for another minute to allow the spices to bloom.

Notes

  • For a milder version, reduce the curry powder and turmeric, or add a little coconut cream to balance out the spice.
  • You can substitute the beef stew meat with other cuts like chuck roast for a richer flavor.
  • Serve this curry with naan or other flatbread for a more traditional meal.
