Beef curry, a delicious gravy recipe made using easily available ingredients at home such as onions and tomatoes and this is a very simple yet tasty delicacy commonly asked for by many viewers.

There are many more meat or indian lamb recipes which should definitely be tried such as bheja fry or brain fry, tala hua gosht etc...

In India it is hard to find the beef but across the globe we see most of the population tends to eat beef and rely on searching many beef recipes that can be easily made without any hassle.

I have already shared few beef recipes such as beef fry which is a fried dish and would like to update few more beef recipes that are commonly looked for.

"Beef" is the red meat obtained from the flesh of a cow mainly that is mostly consumed in International countries and also the meat from ox or bull.

This recipe is for those who sometimes like to find simple gravy recipes or curry recipes which are quick and easy to make.

Like mutton we can make many different varieties of beef recipes such as fried stuff, kabab recipes, cutlets, gravies, biryani recipes and many more that are easily made at home.

Internationally, beef is loved by one and all and most of the restaurants serve this meat by making amazing variety of recipes in different forms.

I have here used it to make a mouth watering gravy and also by combining few potatoes which brings out the flavors of the curry if combined with veggies like potato.

Beef curry here made is one of a kind and it can be made in several ways and there are many ideas and techniques to make it.

How can we make different beef curries:

  • First method to make simple beef curry is by using beef, onions and tomatoes. Pressure cooking the beef with these veggies and also combining with potatoes can make a delicious curry.
  • Second method to make this curry is by using beaten yogurt and fried onions paste which again makes a mouth watering gravy and this method too is a pressure cooker method.

Pressure cooking or slow beef is best?

  • Beef meat takes plenty of time to be cooked. In order to bring out the real flavors, slow cooking gives the best taste but not everyone has time to spend long hours in kitchen. In such cases, making this curry by pressure cooking too gives out unbelievable taste.
  • It is often very important that we buy a good quality beef meat and the flesh has to be fresh for it to get cooked soon if slow cooking method is preferred.

Normally beef can be pressure cooked since it takes 25 to 30 minutes to soften and tenderize and the best way is to give 3-4 whistles by pressure cooking which makes our work easier.

Beef good or bad?:

Beef is also said to cause some negative effects on body but including it sometimes in diet helps in body building, gives proteins to our body, repairs the cells well, strengthens immune system and keeps us strong.

Therefore, consuming it not very often is good for health and consuming it too regularly can cause damage to health.

Below I have shared my version of making beef curry recipe and would also like to here from my viewers there own version of making it and would love to here feedback from my viewers after trying out this recipe.

This particular dish can be served with steamed rice or any pulao recipe or plain roti.

  • Add dry spices such as salt according to taste, red chilli powder, turmeric powder.
  • Mix well and cook the tomatoes and the masala on low flame.
  • Oil should start appearing at the sides.
  • Add water, stir well and pressure cook for 1 whistle on high flame and 3 whistles on low flame or pressure cook until the beef gets 90% tender.
  • Switch off the flame.
  • Reduce the steam.
  • Remove the pressure cooker lid.

Notes

  • If this curry is tried using slow cooking method, then follow the same procedure in the recipe but just keep slow cooking until the meat tenderizes rather than pressure cooking and then add boiled potatoes to make the recipe cook quickly.
  • Rest of the ingredients can be added as mentioned in the recipe.
  • Adding methi leaves brings out the real flavors of the curry but if fenugreek seeds are not available then it can be skipped but they give out a good taste to beef curry.
  • Another simple way to make beef curry would be by slow cooking the beef in curd and fried onion paste along with some whole spices such as cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and bay leaf.
