Pan-Seared Beef Medallions with Masala Cream

Garam masala is the Indian equivalent to chili powder in Tex Mex cooking. You can make your own from a blend of spices but now that garam masala readily available in the spice section of major grocery stores, exotic dishes like this one don’t have to be complicated. This recipe uses full steaks, but you could also cut the steak into stir-fry strips to provide more servings and reduce the cooking time. This recipe was adapted from Chef Joshna Maharaj’s original and modified, as necessary, for home cooks.
