Introduction: Beef Vindaloo Curry
I love cooking curries and this one was the first of a kind being cooked in Tajine (slow cooker).
Very easy to make and very tasty too :)
Step 1: Meat Preparation
You will need 1,5 kg beef cut into small chunks. Rub the chunks with 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp ground black pepper
Step 2: Fry the Meat..
Place your Tajine on stove, the lowest heat to warm it up...
Pour 4-5 tbs of vegetable oil inside and when it heats up add the meat pieces too.
Step 3: Add Onion and Spices..
After the meat has sealed.. fried for like 10minutes - scoop it out and set aside in a warm place.
Add 3yellow onions - chopped and fry for about 8minutes...
Then add 2tsp black or brown mustard seeds and fry slowly till they pop...
Step 4: Add Garlic and Ginger..more Spices..
Once the seeds have popped up - add 8-10 cloves garlic minced and 2" minced(grated) fresh ginger...
Add spices too and fry shortly : 1/2tsp cayenne pepper, 2tsp paprika, 1/2tsp turmeric, 2tsp ground cumin,
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, pinch of ground cloves, 2 tsp garam masala and 1/2 c. cider vinegar + 1/2c. water
and 1-3tsp brown sugar.
Cook for a few minutes....
Step 5: Continue Cooking ...
Return the meat in Tajine and continue cooking for several hours...
Serve with plain Basmati Rice and other vegetable side dishes.
