Here’s a simple recipe for making Namkeen Beef, a flavorful and savory dish. Keep in mind that the term “namkeen” refers to salty or savory flavors in Hindi.
Ingredients:
1 kg beef recipe
- 2 large onions, finely chopped
- 2 tomatoes, chopped
- 3-4 green chilies, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
- 1/2 cup yogurt
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon coriander powder
- 1 tablespoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- Salt to taste
- Oil for cooking
- Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions:
- Marinate the Beef:
- In a bowl, mix yogurt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, ginger-garlic paste, and salt to form a marinade.
- Add the beef pieces to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator for better flavor absorption.
- Cooking the Beef:
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
- Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies.
- Add Marinated Beef:
- Add the marinated beef to the pan. Mix well and cook on medium-high heat until the beef is browned.
- Slow Cooking:
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it cook slowly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Cook Until Tender:
- Continue cooking until the beef is tender and the masala has thickened. You may need to add a little water if it becomes too dry during the cooking process.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Once the beef is tender and the masala is well-cooked, sprinkle garam masala and garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
- Serve:
- Namkeen Beef is ready to be served. It pairs well with rice, naan, or chapb
