Excellent curry; I usually like my curries pretty spicy but the unusual flavor combinations and richness made up for it. Only addition was about a tsp, of salt. Awesome recipe-thank you!

    DH says this is a "real keeper". 2 pounds of stewing beef made barely enough for 4 of us, served with basmati rice and salad. I also cut the beef cubes smaller, as suggested, which was a good idea. And DH did add salt. So everyone's suggestions were useful. It is really quite easy to put together and I let it simmer about 2 hours. Yum!

    This tasted pretty close to the real thing (we live in Singapore). I used dried (flakes) coriander instead of ground. I simmered the beef for about 2 hrs, and discarded afterwards the cinnamon and star anise, but not the cardamom. My only suggestions are that you add a bit of sea salt or fine salt to enhance the taste, reduce the powdered almonds to 30g because the sauce becomes a bit too thick, and you can use chili flakes instead of the red chili.

    Liked the seasoning of this. Next time I make it I'll cut the beef into smaller chunks and get it browned on higher heat. I tended to let the mixture simmer too long and too hot which caused the meat to get too overdone.
