Ingredients to make Homemade Curry For Meat

Meat — one recipe is nominally for 1 pound of meat, but if you want more sauce, double everything but the meat. We’ve used beef, chicken, chicken sausage, turkey sausage, kielbasa, etc.
1 small onion
1-inch piece fresh ginger, or 1 tablespoon ginger paste
1 medium-sized tomato, or half a 14-oz can whole tomatoes, drained
1 head fresh cilantro
1-2 hot green chilies
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 teaspoons store-bought garam masala. You may have to go to an Indian or Middle-Eastern grocer for garam masala, although I’ll be shocked if they are not stocking it in grocery stores these days.
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup plain yoghurt
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
3 tablespoons vegetable oil (don’t scale this up when you make more — you only need it to saute the garlic).
4 cloves garlic
Ground black peppper

Directions to make Homemade Curry For Meat

Step 1:

Cut the meat into small cubes. Chop the onion, ginger, tomatoes and cilantro finely. Either seed the chilies (if you want it less hot) or not, and slice them into thin rings. Mix together the onion, ginger, tomato, cilantro, chilies, turmeric, garam masala, cumin, yoghurt, tomato paste and salt in a bowl. If you are using beef as the meat, mix that in as well.

Step 2:

Chop the garlic finely. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch Oven, and add the garlic. Saute until it starts turning a medium brown. Now add the contents of the bowl, stir once or twice, and turn the heat to low. Simmer, covered, stirring every now and then.

Step 3:

If you are using beef, you should simmer for 2 hours. Otherwise, you\’ll only need to simmer for an hour. Add chicken 30 minutes before eating. If using cooked sausage (like Kielbasa), add that 15 minutes before eating. If using an uncooked sausage, I like to fry it first, drain, and then add it 15 minutes before eating. Top with fresh ground pepper.
