Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced (or use 1/4 cup readymade brown onions to save time)
  • 3 lbs boneless beef, cut into 1 inch cubes (I like to use sirloin or flank steak)
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp red chilli powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp ground pomegranate seed (anar dana) (optional)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 cup yogurt (sub for 1 cup coconut cream & 1 tbsp lemon juice if making Whole30)
  • 2 tbsp ground papaya (or meat tenderizer powder)
  • 1 tsp ginger, minced
  • 1 tsp garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp arrowroot powder (or chickpea flour/besan)

Instructions

  • In a saucepan heat 4 tbsp oil, and add the sliced onions and cook, stirring often until browned. About 15 minutes. Drain and remove from pan.*
  • In a large bowl, mix together the brown onions with the remaining ingredients, and mix well to coat all the pieces of meat.
  • Cover and refrigerate. Let it marinate for at least 24-48 hours. After this you can freeze for a future meal prep. Or go straight to cook to serve.
  • To cook, I recommend BBQ or using an electric grill. Cook to an internal temperature of about 145F. Serve immediately with some raita or on a big green salad.

Notes

*Skip this step if you are using readymade brown onions.
