👨‍🍳 作り方

1
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat ghee or oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
2
Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
3
Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides.
4
Stir in the tomato puree, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth. Add the whisked yogurt to the pot, stirring continuously to prevent curdling. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
6
Add the dried figs and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is tender and the figs have softened.
7
Stir in the garam masala. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, uncovered, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
8
Garnish with fresh cilantro and julienned ginger before serving.
