Curried Beef

People talking
Curried beef was a staple when I was growing up, therefore consider it one of my favourite 'comfort' foods. More often than not, my Mother used goat meat. If you get the chance, I highly recommend giving it a try. The curried meat was usually served with Rice 'n Peas (Recipe #373354 is a good version) or plain white rice. You could also substitute the beef with pork tenderloin. The amount of curry given is just a guideline. Each brand and type of curry has it's own unique qualities and intensity. If you do not have access to scotch bonnet peppers, habeneros or jalapenos will do. Freezes well for later use.

- Add broth, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, then simmer, covered, for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until the meat is tender. Meat should be almost covered with liquid at all times. Add more broth if necessary.

This is deliciously spicy! Totally enjoyed the peppers that were sauteed with the onions and garlic. I cubed my beef, instead of slicing it...just read 1 inch pieces. I did cook mine about 2 hours to get it tender. I used sirloin steak. Also, next time I will not add any salt....mine was a bit salty. My beef broth had salt in it, and that is probably why. I didn't use flour to thicken the sauce....just let the rice absorb it. Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Fall 2011.Reply
