Directions

1. Combine beef, garlic and ginger in a bowl. 2. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven or enamelled cast-iron roaster. Brown beef, in batches, turning, until browned all over. 3. Stir in fried onions, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, garam masala, cumin, coriander, salt and turmeric. Cook, stirring, until the tomato and oil separates. Stir in green chilies to taste, if using. 4. Stir in 2 cups (500 mL) water and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours or until the beef is fork-tender. Check the curry as it simmers and add more water as needed to keep the curry saucy. Serve garnished with cilantro.

Tip

*For the garlic and gingerroot paste, you can use the purée or paste found in jars in the grocery store or use a fine grater, such as a Microplane, to make your own purée in small amounts just as you need it.

**Fried onions, which are crispy, dehydrated fried onions, can be found in packages or containers at any Indian grocery store or in the Southeast Asian section of well-stocked supermarkets.
