Beef Bombay Curry

This recipe comes from a Dutch language curry cookbook I picked up somewhere along the way. The key is to start off with nice beefsteak, the tenderest cut that you can afford.

This is the first time I am attempting an indian recipe from zaar. I am really pleased with the outcome. I left out the tomato and the coconut milk entirely, and it was still great. The omission of tomato made it a yellow curry. Instead of tomato, I added 1/2 tsp tamarind concentrate and 1 tsp sugar. It was perfect. I will make it again.

    Great flavors, and easy to put together. I pureed the coconut milk, chili peppers, ginger, garlic, and all of the spices in my food processor and poured it over the sliced beef round, fresh grape tomatoes, quartered onions, and a head of cauliflower in our crock pot. I just set it on low and let it do its thing over the course of the day-- super convenient and awesome smells to come home to. I wanted a creamier sauce, so I added 1/2 c of plain nonfat yogurt, which I blended together with some thickener, cilantro, and 1/4 tsp garam masala. Next time I'll squeeze some fresh lemon juice over it and add a touch of sugar. Yummy, FlemishMinx!

    What a wonderful dish! I followed the recipe and used jalapenos from the jar. I didn't have any coconut milk, so used 2% and it turned out just fine. This was wonderful on top of ribeye steaks! I didn't add the meat to the sauce as it cooked. Instead I broiled the steaks and topped them with the sauce. Because I broiled the steaks, the sauce didn't take long to simmer since the meat wasn't simmering with it. I cut the recipe in half and the extra sauce was wonderful on top of rice with the steaks. Thanks Flemish. I'll be making this again!
