Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb Beef
  • 1 Onion medium size
  • 2 cup Curry leaves
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • Lime
  • 1 tsp Chili flakes
  • 1/2 tsp Chili powder
  • 1/4 Chicken bouillon cube
  • Oil

Instructions

  1. To begin this recipe start by boiling the beef in smaller pieces, it will cook quicker. Once done let them cool down for a few minutes. Use a food processor or your blender to break them into smaller pieces. You can use your hands to break them or use a knife to chop it in thinly but the best result will come from using the food processor. Take the smaller pieces off and redo the bigger beef pieces so that all of them are evenly cut. Keep it aside for later use.

  2. Have the onions thinly sliced, start frying them to a light brown on a non-stick pan with a bit of oil. When frying onions, fry half portion at a time, otherwise it will take a long time to get it done. Fry until they turn a slightly lighter brown. When done use a kitchen paper towel to drain the excess oil off of it. If left oily the beef fry won't turn out dry it will end up too oily and soggy

    .

  3. Fry the curry leaves as well. This will get fried really quickly so do watch out so it doesn't get overdone. Once it's fried to a lighter brown use a kitchen paper towel to drain the excess oil off of it.

    .

  4. Next fry the beef that we kept it aside earlier. Fry it using little oil. Since it is in smaller pieces it will get fried quickly so stir often and evenly fry them to a light brown color.

    .

  5. NOTE - If one of these ingredients gets overdone or gets burned, the beef fry will taste a little off so do stir when frying them all and keep in mind not to burn them. As long as they come out when slightly turned to brown take off the stove and let it drain the oil on a paper towel.

    .

  6. Now that all 3 main ingredients are fried separately and drained off of there excess oil we can move on to the easy part.

    .

  7. Put all 3 ingredients in a bowl along with the salt, chili flakes, chili powder, chicken cube and a squeeze of lime.

    .

  8. Combine it all well with your hand so that the ingredients get broken to bits and mix the flavors well together.

    .

  9. Taste to see if you're satisfied with the seasoning. If needed spices add either the chili flakes and/or the chili powder. If the salt and lime needed adjusting, use them both little at a time to achieve the taste you want.
