HOW TO MAKE BEEF MASALA 

  • It all starts with having the right spices, which are very easy to find. 
  • Then you will want to buy some beef chunks. 
  • Everything is made in one pot, so the rest is easy,

If you know me, you know that I LOVE INDIAN food.

Heck, I go out to eat it at least once per month to my favorite restaurant for it. 

And will also make it at home too! That is a whole lot of curry in my diet.

Plus I’m picky when it come to curry so you can trust that my recipe is a winner.

  • BEEF MASALA consists of some kind of Beef Stewing meat, cream or coconut milk, ginger and garlic and some Indian spices.

WHAT SPICES ARE USED IN BEEF MASALA

Beef Masala or Garam Masala is made up of Coriander seeds, Cumin, Red Chillies, Turmeric, Black Pepper, Iodised Salt, Dried Ginger, Mustard, Fennel, Seeds, Garlic, Cassia, Fenugreek Leaves, Cardamom Amomum, Cloves, Nutmeg, Green Cardamom, Mace, Asafoetida.

However I like to use a pre-packaged meat masala which is super easy to use when making Indian food at home yourself.

The Brand I like to use when making my beef masala can be seen below and is found at your local Superstore or any other large grocer.

Indian Beef Curry with Coconut Milk

Indian Beef Curry can be all made in one pot.

Such as

  • stove top
  • instant pot
  • slow cooker

So you can defiantly skip the takeout tonight with this easy to make recipe. 

If you have never made Indian food before, you are going to be shocked at how easy it is to make.

Basically all we are doing here is sauteing the beef.

Then tossing in all those delicious spices along with some butter and searing for a few minutes till fragrant.

Before adding in the tomato paste, coconut milk and chopped green pepper. 

Then simmer it all together till the beef is tender and all those delicious flavors have merged.

I like to serve this alongside a bed of Jasmine rice and sometimes if I am in the mood for something extra special. I will make homemade naan bread on the side, see recipe below for that. 

Indian Beef Curry is also known as Beef Masala, it’s the same thing. Different names, both dishes are prepared the same way other than some people use cream vs coconut milk.

BEEF MASALA

Which is just as good if you ask me, also I like to add Green Peppers to this dish. Typically it just has beef, however I find it gives it more of a rounded meal. 

Indian Beef Curry has hints of spice and comes in a deep rich brown sauce. It really is something special and this recipe has all the same tastes that you would find at your local favorite Indian.

WHAT IS BEEF MASALA

  • Beef Masala is a traditional Indian side dish that is typically served as a meal alongside rice or naan bread. It cooks the beef very tender in a rich curry paste.

You may have thought that making Beef Masala at home would be complicated, but I am here to tell you it is not.
