Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs. beef stew meat, cut into chunks
- 1 can (14 oz.) coconut milk
- 1 large onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp. fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp. curry powder
- 1 tsp. turmeric
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. chili flakes (optional)
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 2 potatoes, cubed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the beef and vegetables: cut beef into chunks, dice onion, peel and slice carrots and potatoes. Gather spices and garlic.
- If desired, sear beef in a hot skillet until browned for extra flavor, then transfer to slow cooker.
- Add beef, onions, carrots, potatoes, garlic, curry powder, turmeric, cumin, chili flakes, salt, and pepper into the slow cooker.
- Pour in coconut milk and stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Set to low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until beef is tender and flavors meld.
- Stir the curry gently, taste and adjust seasonings. Serve hot garnished with fresh cilantro alongside rice or your preferred side.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, add a splash of fish sauce or lime juice before serving.
- You can skip searing the beef if short on time, adding raw beef directly into the slow cooker.
- This dish pairs well with basmati rice, quinoa, naan, or crusty bread.
