Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until they are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Brown the Beef

    Increase the heat to medium-high and add the cubed beef to the pot. Season with salt and black pepper. Brown the beef on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Cooking the Curry

  1. 3

    Add Spices

    Once the beef is browned, add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and red chili powder. Stir well to coat the beef and cook for 2 minutes to toast the spices.

  2. 4

    Add Liquids

    Pour in the beef broth and coconut milk, stirring to combine. Add the cinnamon stick and bring the mixture to a simmer.

  3. 5

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the curry simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender. Stir occasionally and check the seasoning, adjusting with more salt if necessary.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the cinnamon stick. Serve the beef curry hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
