Directions
Cut beef into large squares. Wash and peel potatoes. Cut into quarters. Put onion, garlic, ginger, turmeric and chili powder in a food processor. Process until you get a pasty mixture. In a wok or deep-sided frying pan, heat oil. Add spicy paste and stir. Cook in low heat for 10 minutes. Add a little water if the mixture starts to burn or dry. The spicy paste is cooked when it is golden brown and has oil around the edges. Add cumin and coriander and stir. Add beef and fry. Stir for 3-5 minutes. Add salt to taste, 2 cups water and potatoes. Simmer slowly until beef and potatoes are tender. Serves 4.
