Cooking tips

  • For beef, cuts like chuck eye roll or chuck flap tail, which become more flavorful and chewy with long simmering, are much better suited than tender cuts like tenderloin.
  • When blending carrots without water in a blender, place the watery tomatoes at the bottom first. This prevents the blender from spinning without grinding and ensures a smooth puree.
  • The key spice for an exotic flavor, cumin powder, should be added and stir-fried when the onion's moisture has completely evaporated and oil has reappeared. This is when its aroma truly comes alive.
  • The finished curry is delicious right away, but it becomes even more flavorful if cooled for a day and reheated the next. This allows the flavors of the meat and spices to deepen.
