Calcutta Style Beef Curry

Recipe #202860 | 1 hour | 10 min prep | add private note

By: Brian H
Jan 1, 2007

Calcutta is a city with a reputation, the food is wonderful though. This dish can be made with the cheapest cut of beef you can find. The gravy is on the thin side and will enhance the rice when served. The meat can be precooked, but keep the water.

Fantastic curry with nice heat to it — and so easy to make! I followed the recipe as written except for using 1 tablespoon of minced fresh ginger in place of the ground. Made and enjoyed for the Asian Beef Curry Tag Game — and will be made again often in the future.
