Filipino beef curry

Filipino curry was one of my favourite dishes growing up. Traditionally the protein is chicken, but I chose to make mine with beef. Specifically, brisket. The long cooking time required by the meat allowed the flavours to deepen, and the potatoes to turn soft and silky. Following family tradition, I used ready-made, generic supermarket curry powder. Feel free to use a blend such as masala. The proportions below may vary depending on the strength of your curry powder.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a bowl, toss the beef with the yogurt and a large pinch of salt. Cover and let marinate in the fridge from 4 hours to overnight.
- 2
Add a splash of veg oil to a large pan on medium-high heat. Remove the meat from the marinade and wipe off as much of the yogurt as you can. Sear the meat in the pan until all sides are well-browned.
- 3
Add the garlic, onion, and ginger to the pan. Let fry for 2 minutes, then add the curry powder and paprika. Let fry another 2 minutes.
- 4
Add the coconut milk, palm sugar, bay leaves and potatoes to the pan, along with 2 cups water. Add a good pinch of salt and several grinds of freshly cracked black pepper. Turn the heat down to low and let simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours until the meat is tender. Add water as needed to keep the meat mostly submerged.
- 5
Once the meat is fork tender, turn the heat back up to medium-high and remove the bay leaves. Let simmer until the sauce is reduced and thick. Serve with freshly steamed rice.

Beef curry Beef curry
In case it's not obvious from the fact that I've now posted two recipes for it, I love Indian-spiced beef curry. Something about the combination of warm spices, sweet coconut milk, and tender meat really gets my engine revving. This version is much quicker than the previous one (no marinating required). It also has a slightly deeper flavour, thanks to the addition of garam masala and cumin. Differences aside, I love them both and would happily eat either any day. Robert Gonzal -

Peanut beef curry Peanut beef curry
I was going to give this dish the cutesy name kare-curry, because it's a mashup of two of my favourite foods: kare-kare (Filipino peanut stew) and Thai red curry. I held back on that point, but did indulge a bit by using beef short ribs, one of the all-time awesome meats. The resulting dish was a little sweet, a little salty, a little funky, a little spicy, super savoury, and very, very rich. This recipe isn't for the meek-stomached or those on a diet, but if you're looking for a flavour punch to the taste buds, it's pretty great. Robert Gonzal -
Tenderest Beef Curry Tenderest Beef Curry
I was looking for something different to do with a roast I had in the freezer and this didn't disappoint. I borrowed a technique from Kenji Lopez-Alt in caramelizing the onions. Adding the water allows the Maillard reactions (responsible for browning) evenly and without burning the onions, resulting in sweet, savory onions. I used top sirloin, but you can use any large roast for this recipe, chuck might actually stand up better to the low, slow cooking. Try to use the freshest spices you can scrounge up! Jon Valdez -
Authentic Indian-Style Beef Curry Authentic Indian-Style Beef Curry
I adapted a curry recipe that a neighbor taught me to make this authentic curry. This is the type of curry I ate growing up. You can make it with beef, pork, chicken, ground meat or whatever meat you like. These days I like making it with ground meat for a Keema style curry and eating it with naan.-You can use beef, chicken or any other meat you like. Chicken will taste quite light.-If you use a pressure cooker, the meat will become tender easily.-As it simmers, the soup in the pot will reduce, so add water if needed.-If you toast the chopped onion in a toaster oven for 15 minutes or so before sautéing, it will caramelize quite easily.-You can use garlic and ginger from tubes, but freshly grated tastes and smells better.-This curry is also delicious with naan instead of rice. For 7 to 8 servings or so. Recipe by Gonyonyo cookpad.japan -
