How Do you make Beef Curry?
- Add 2 pounds beef stew meat into lightly sprayed 6qt slow cooker
- Add in potatoes, curry powder, ground cumin, ginger, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix all to combine. Crumble a 1/2 a piece of Naan bread over the beef and then pour tomatoes over the top.
- Cover and cook on low 5-7 hours.
- Uncover and mix well. In a food processor combine cilantro, pickled jalapeños and brine and cumin. Pulse until combined, scraping down the side if necessary and season with salt and pepper.
- Mix in 3 Tablespoons of cilantro puree into slow cooker, and add additional puree to top off each individual serving. Serve hot over rice and with fresh Naan bread.
Tips for making Slow Cooker Beef Curry:
- You do not have to add potatoes to your curry recipe, you can just add the beef and spices and omit the potatoes.
- Make sure to check your Beef Curry around 5 hours ( very quickly) if you know your slow cooker runs hot, even when on low. If you let it over cook your potatoes will fall apart and loose their shape.
- Beef Curry is great served over rice, but you can also just serve it with the Naan bread too. Naan bread is soft and is great for dipping in to the curry.
- When making the cilantro puree make sure to pulse and scrape down the sides to fully incorporate all the ingredients so it can get pureed.
- I also recommend lightly spraying your slow cooking with cooking spray so the beef does not stick to the bottom or the sides of the slow cooker and over cook.
- You can keep this in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
