Indian Beef Curry !

I’ve got a delicious and non-traditional holiday recipe coming your way!  And it's Indian Beef Curry with Potatoes.

It’s simmered low and slow with warm spices and hearty ingredients.  Creating rich and deep flavors that will warm you from the inside out this holiday season.

What do you serve for Christmas and New Year’s Eve dinners?  I have my favorites that I rotate between like Slow Cooked Lamb Shanks, a Rib Roast with Horseradish Sauce, or Veal Osso Buco…  but I’m all about mixing it up.

So this year we’re making Indian Beef Curry.  And it’s so good my friend!

Imagine a cornucopia of spices like cumin, turmeric, garam masala, coriander, red pepper, and bay leaves simmered with beef stock, beef roast, tomato paste, onions, garlic, and ginger.  Creating the most tender meat and veggies and an all-around delicious meal!

Growing up we always had a turkey at Thanksgiving and a ham at Christmas and Easter.  So, I was on board with the turkey, but the ham was kind of lost on me.

So when I started making my own holiday meals for my family, I decided to branch out with some other more interesting entrees.  

Like today’s recipe for Indian Beef Curry.

There’s something so festive about cooking with warm and fragrant spices.  

And the aroma is so intoxicating that I can barely wait to indulge.
