Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    Cut the yak meat into bite-sized pieces. If using beef, ensure it's well-trimmed.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Base

    In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Add Aromatics

    Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Cook the Tomatoes

    Add the chopped tomatoes and green chilies to the pot. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and oil begins to separate.

  5. 5

    Season the Meat

    Add the yak meat to the pot along with turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the meat with the spices.

  6. 6

    Simmer

    Cover the pot and let it simmer on low heat for about 30-40 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Stir occasionally.

  7. 7

    Finish with Garam Masala

    Once the meat is tender, add garam masala and stir well. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  8. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Enjoy your Himalayan Yak with rice or bread.
