    What is beef curry?

    This beef curry is made with slow cooked beef in a sweet, smoky and flavorful complex sauce made from homemade curry seasoning and coconut milk.

    Choose a lean, flavorful cut of beef and slow cook it all day on low for best results.

    The meat will come out so tender and flavorful and will be delicious served over rice for a simple yet delicious family meal.

    Ingredients needed...

    The ingredients for this particular curry are designed to be simple so that you can quickly throw this in your slow cooker in the morning and come home to a delicious meal with complex flavors in the evening.

    • beef - I like a lean stew meat or chuck roast for this recipe
    • coconut milk - an unsweetened can of coconut milk
    • onion and garlic - for extra flavor
    • homemade curry powder
    • salt to taste - I prefer around 1 teaspoon

    How to make beef curry

    I prefer using my slow cooker for dishes like this to let the flavors slow cooker and meld all day.

    You'll want to make sure your beef is in bite sized pieces so that it will cook evenly and let the flavors soak into every bite.

    Whisk together the coconut milk with the seasoning and pour it over the meat along with the onion and garlic.

    Let cook all day on low for best results. When it's done cooking, the meat will be fall apart tender and you can break it into smaller pieces if desired.

    How to serve beef curry...

    Beef curry is delicious served simply over steamed white or brown rice. I also love chickpea rice as a grain free option.

    I love topping it off with fresh chopped cilantro for extra flavor.

    This is also a great meal prep recipe. Portion out the curry over rice in individual containers and reheat to serve.

      Hi, Jennifer!
      I LOVE curry dishes and was so happy to see your delicious post. Is it possible to substitute another type of milk for the coconut milk? I know it will probably change the flavor some, but what about using buttermilk or evaporate milk? Keep up your great blog! I've made many of your recipes....all Gold Star!
