Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons oil
2 onions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 1/2 tablespoons ground coriander
2 1/2 cm piece ginger, finely chopped
750 g stewing beef, cubed
2 tablespoons tomato puree
salt
375 g potatoes
4 green chilies

Steps:

Heal the oil in a large pan and add the onions, frying until lightly coloured.
Add the garlic, chilli powder, cumin, coriander and ginger and cook gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally; if the mixture becomes dry, add 2 tablespoons of water.
Add the beef and cook, stirring, until browned all over. Add the tomato puree, salt to taste and just enough water to cover the meat; stir very well.
Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for about 1 hour or until the meat is almost tender. Add the potatoes and whole chillies and simmer until the potatoes are cooked.
