Ingredients:

450g lean beef, cut into 3cm cubes
2 tsp sea salt
300ml natural yoghurt
2 large onions, sliced
4 tbsp ghee (or vegetable oil)
50g fresh ginger, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 tsp ground coriander seeds
1 tsp Garam Masala
1/2 tsp hot chilli powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin seeds
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp turmeric powder

Method:

Combine the beef, salt and yoghurt in a bowl. Mix thoroughly with your hands then cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours to marinate.

When ready to cook heat the ghee in a large saucepan then add the onions and fry until golden brown (about 8 minutes). Now add the sliced ginger and garlic along with the remaining spices and cook gently, stirring all the time, until soft.

Stir in the beef (along with its marinade) and mix thoroughly. Partially cover the pan and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook gently for 75 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Serve with rice.
