I invented this recipe for tonight’s dinner. It’s a slightly altered version of my popular Butter Chicken Recipe. This one could also easily be made vegetarian by omitting the beef (or chicken) and using chick peas, potatoes or a combination of both!
I decided to keep the calories and fat low by using only a small amount of cooking oil, as well as light sour cream. You can experiment with the spices as much as you like, try less or more of the recommended amounts to create your own custom curry dish!
Low-Fat Curry Beef Recipe
1 TBSP Cooking Oil
1 Pound Lean Stewing Beef (or Chicken meat) cut into small pieces
1 Large Onion, chopped
5 Cloves Garlic, minced
1 TBSP Curry Powder
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Cardamom
2 Cups Water
1 Packet of Dry Broth
1 Cup Light Sour Cream
Saute beef (or chicken) in the oil. Add in onion and garlic and spices, until meat is fully cooked. Add water and dry broth. Cover and simmer for about 1/2 hour. When liquid is reduced to about 1 cup, add sour cream, and heat til lightly bubbly.
Serve with Basmati Rice, or Peas Pulau and Peach Chutney.
