Beef Bhuna Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds beef, cut into cubes (preferably chuck or brisket)
  • 2 large onions, finely sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece ginger, grated
  • 2-3 green chilies, slit (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup oil (vegetable or ghee)
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon coriander powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • Salt, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Beef:

    • In a bowl, combine the beef cubes, yogurt, turmeric, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight in the fridge for deeper flavor).

  2. Cook the Onions:

    • Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.

  3. Add Garlic and Ginger:

    • Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chilies. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  1. Add the Beef:

    • Add the marinated beef to the pot, along with the tomato paste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. Simmer:

    • Add enough water to cover the beef (about 2 cups). Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed.

  3. Finish the Dish:

    • Once the beef is tender, check for seasoning and adjust salt if necessary. Sprinkle garam masala over the top and stir well.

  4. Garnish and Serve:

    • Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or roti.

Enjoy!

This Beef Vuna is rich in flavor and perfect for sharing with family and friends. Enjoy the warm spices and tender beef!
