Chilli Beef

Here now I am going to write down a recipe with beef, make sure you buy good boneless soft beef from the market and try avoiding the fat stuff on it.

Chilli Beef

Ingredients (servings 4-5)

Beef - 1kg boneless soft cut into medium pieces

Pepper pods - 25gms

Ginger n Garlic Paste - 2 tablespoon

Capsicum - 150gms

Ginger - chopped 1 teaspoon

Garlic - chopped 1 teaspoon

Green Chilli - 4 pieces

Soya Sauce - 4-5 tablespoon

Cornflour - 3 tablespoon

Coriander leaves - nicely chopped

Ajino moto - 1 teaspoon (optional)

Salt to taste

Method

Nicely wash the beef and place it in a pressure cooker. Put the pepper pods and the ginger garlic paste into the beef and cook it to almost 8-10 whistle, so that it is quite soft enough in the pressure cooker.
Now drain the beef out of the water but do keep the water separately for later use.

Cut the capsicum into long thin shreds and also the green chillies.

In a glass put 3 tablespoon for cornflour and the beef stock, which came out of the beef boil and make it around 100ml

Place 4 tablespoon oil in a wok or kadai and place the chopped ginger n garlic and chopped green chillies in it. Stir for 30secs and put 200 ml of the beef stock and 4-5 tablespoon of soya sauce and bring it to boil, then slowly little by little put the cornflour mix into the wok or kadai till you bring it to a nice semi-thick liquid like a thick soup. Add the beef and the salt to taste and nicely mix it in the thick gravy till you see all the gravy is completely sticking to the beef. You can keep the gravy consistency to a gravy type or nicely dry it up with the beef to make a dry chilli beef.

Now add the ajino moto and the shredded capsicum. Stir for another 1min and bring it down from the heat. Sprinkle the cut coriander leaves and cover it.

Serve it in a nice flat bowl and her it is ready to be savoured.

ENJOY!!!
