Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs beef stew meat tender and juicy!
  • 3 tbsp vinegar apple cider or white works great
  • 2 medium onions chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 inch ginger grated
  • 2 medium tomatoes chopped
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp red chili powder
  • to taste Salt

Equipment

  • Sharp knife
  • Blender or food processor
  • Heavy-bottomed pot or pressure cooker

Method
 

  1. Cut the beef into bite-sized chunks and mix with vinegar, turmeric, and salt in a bowl; let sit for at least an hour or overnight in the fridge.
  2. Blend the onions, garlic, and ginger into a smooth paste, adding spices to create a flavorful mixture.
  3. Heat oil in a large pan, add mustard seeds, and wait for them to pop.
  4. Add the marinated beef to the pan and brown slightly while stirring to coat evenly.
  5. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook down until they are soft and pulpy.
  6. Transfer everything to a pot or pressure cooker, add a splash of water, cover, and simmer until the beef is tender—30 minutes in a pressure cooker or about an hour on low heat.
  7. Optional: Stir in a dollop of coconut milk at the end for a creamy finish.

Notes

Use stewing beef for tenderness; tougher cuts won’t break down as nicely. Adjust the chili powder to suit your spice tolerance. Don’t skip the marination step—it's key for maximum flavor. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months; the flavors improve over time.
