Origin of the word “curry”
For those curious about the origin of the word “curry,” it is traced back to the Tamil language, which means we are going to prepare a meat sauce.
Ingredients in Indian-style meat curry:
Let’s now begin with the method of preparing a delicious meat curry. These are the ingredients you will need:
- Beef or lamb, according to preference, is about 400 grams.
- Onion, thinly sliced.
- Garlic and ground pepper
- Spices: cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and bay leaves
- Ground spices: Kashmiri pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and meat masala spices.
- Yogurt, preferably left out of the refrigerator for 30 minutes before cooking.
Preparing the yogurt mixture:
Before we start cooking the curry, we need to prepare the yogurt mixture. So, we mix all the ground spices with yogurt, adding a little warm water.
Instructions:
- In a deep pot, we add a little oil and the spices (cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and bay leaves) and stir them slightly. The goal here is to heat the spices slightly without burning them, which only takes a few seconds.
- Next, add the onion slices to the pot and stir them until they turn a beautiful golden color.
- After, add the garlic and pepper paste to the mixture of onions and spices while continuing to stir. This helps to impart a wonderful flavor to the curry.
- Place the chopped meat in the pot and stir it until its color changes and it starts releasing water.
- It is time to add the yogurt and mix all the ingredients together.
- Add water according to the amount of meat and the desired thickness of the curry. If you prefer the curry to be less thick, you can add a little hot water.
- Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the pot.
- Let the curry cook on low heat until it is fully cooked. Of course, this depends on the type of meat and the pot you use, whether it is a regular pot or a pressure cooker.
Once the curry is fully cooked, you can serve it with your favorite rice or bread. There are many options for enjoying a meat curry recipe, and your choice depends on your personal taste.
