Indian Recipe for Musaman or Masaman Beef Curry

INGREDIENTS

2 tbsp oil
500g rum steak (cut into cubes)
2 to 3 tbsp Musaman curry paste
2 onions (chopped)
4 potatoes (cut into large pieces)
2 1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 tsp ground cardamon
1 cinnamon stick
2 tbsp tarmarind concetrate
3 tsp soft brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted roasted peanuts (chopped)

TIP: You can buy musaman or masaman curry paste at any Indian store. It is usually made from a blend of chilli, garlic, onion, coriander, cumin and tamarind.

If prefer, you can subsitute lemon juice instead of tarmarind.

To prepare:

Heat oil in wok pan
Add cubes of steak into wok, fry till browned
Remove and drain well on paper towel
Add curry paste to wok, stir-fry for 1 min
Toss in onion, potato and cook till golden brown
Return cubes to wok, stir in coconut milk gently
Add cardamon, cinnamon stick, tarmarind (or lemon juice), sugar and 1/2 cup of water
Bring everything to a boil
Reduce, simmer for 20 to 30 mins or till meat is tender
Discard stick and stir in the peanuts thoroughly

Alternatively, instead of adding the peanuts to the mix as you cook, you can sprinkle it over the curry as garnish just before you serve.
