Ingredients

15

ml

oil
2

large onions, thinly sliced
6

whole cloves
8

green cardamom seeds
4

whole star aniseed
1

each green and red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
20

ml

curry paste
10

ml

turmeric
1

kg

lean beef cubes
65

ml

lemon juice
salt and sugar to taste
500

ml

uncooked basmati rice
fresh coriander leaves (dhania) for garnishing

Method

Heat the wok and add the oil. Brush the inside of the wok with the hot oil, removing any excess oil with paper towelling. Stir-fry the onion until tender, reduce the heat and add the spices. Stir-fry for another 3 to 4 minutes. Gradually add the beef cubes, mixing well. Add a little hot water, cover the wok, reduce the heat and simmer until the meat is tender and done. Remove the lid, increase the heat and simmer until any excess liquid has evaporated. Stir frequently to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the wok. Add the lemon juice and season to taste with salt and sugar. Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the instructions on the packet. Serve with the curry, along with a chopped onion and tomato salad. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.

Tip of the day

Smooth salt
Put a few rice granules in your salt container. This prevents the salt from absorbing moisture and clumping.
