Beef Fry & a me-me tag :)
Ingredients
- 1/2 kg Beef
- 1 big Onion sliced finely
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup Small onion sliced
- 1/2 tbsp Chili powder
- 1 tbsp Coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
- 1/2 - 1 tbsp each Crushed Ginger & garlic
- 2 tsp Vinegar
- 1/2 - 1 tsp Fennel seeds
- 1 inch piece Cinnamon
- 4-5 Cloves
- 2 Star anis
- 1/2 - 1 tsp Garam Masala optional
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup Bite size coconut pieces (thengakothu)
- Coconut oil
- Salt
- Curry leaves
Instructions
- Powder aniseed, cinnamon, cloves and star anis and keep aside. Combine the powdered spices, ginger garlic, small onion, bite size coconut pieces,chilli, coriander and turmeric powder, vinegar, salt, curry leaves & beef. Make sure that beef is marinated well with the spices. Pressure cook the marinated beef till it is done. I usually dont add water while cooking, but if you want you can add 2-3 tbsp of water. If there is any water left, after pressure cooking, cook till the water is dried.
- Heat oil in a pan and saute the onions, till it becomes golden brown. Add the cooked beef & curry leaves. If you want you can sprinkle garam masala at this stage. Mix well. Stir over a low flame, till it is roasted well.Serve with rice and kachimoru or chapathi, puttu, appam etc;
Notes
Notes: The original recipe doesnt call for garam masala, I added it since I like it to be spicy. You can be a bit generous with oil, if you want a well roasted/fried beef. Recipe adapted from: Flavours of Kerala
