I am planning on making a nice beef curry for when my parents come at the weekend. I love cooking but haven't cooked a curry for years, i have Tumeric, bay leaves, Cumin etc, but just wondered if anyone had any good recipes I could follow, I have tried bbc.co.uk/food but not keen on there interpretation of Curry.

Thanks guys

Curry is really easy.

Fry the meat and 1 or 2 onions (dep on amount meat)
Add 1 or 2 cans chopped tomatos (dep on amount meat....)
Cook for a bit.
Add...

1/2tsp crushed cumin seed
1/2tsp crushed coriander seed
1tsp tumeric
2tsp garam masala
2tsp finely chopped coriander leaf
1-2tsp chilli powder
10-12 cardomon pods (cracked)

OR

3tbs of curry powder

Cook for a while.

Add yogurt to taste.

Loveleeeee


This is a balti style, with the tomato base, but its the easiest to cook. You really can't go wrong!!

So the sauce doesn't come from stock ?? Ahh.

I was expecting to put in beef stock and yogurt mm could I substitute that for Cream ??

Would I serve with poppodoms and mango Chutney ? and Nan bread.

Sorry I am a Indian cookery novice I have only just recently at the good old age of 30 and half tried an Indian Meal !!

:scared:

Sure you could use cream instead of yogurt. Probably could use less too.

Serve with anything, nan bread is good. If you have a sweet tooth Sainsbury does really nice Peshwari nans, they are mango and rasin i think. Very tasty !!

You should note i am no curry pro though THe above tastes fine to me but that might not be much to go on!!!

Mango chutney!! You have got me salivating!!!

If you want an easy (and mild) beef one, and you want to follow a recipe instead of my "curry ala Pete", the one i would go for is :
