This is weird. When you're in Pakistan you try your best to stay away from Pakistani food but when you are in a foreign country, you mostly look forward to have Pakistani food. We always love what we can't have.
Such is the story of this recipe. I made Pakistani Beef Stew today which I took from my friend Hirra Pervaiz's blog who is chilling in Thailand these days. Her blog is awesome as I get a lot of nice recipes from it but it is more awesome for you ladies so do check it out by clicking on the image below.
Coming back to the recipe. It is amazing in taste and really simple to make. Fulfilled my Desi food craving and also made my weekend.
INGREDIENTS:
1 kilogram beef stew cut into 1 inch cubes
2 medium onions finely chopped
8-10 dried red chilies
1 whole garlic bulb (better to crush the cloves and not chop them)
3-4 tomatoes, chopped
3-4 green chilies
1 cup yogurt
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
10-12 black pepper corn
2 cinnamon sticks
8-9 cloves
1/2 cup oil or ghee
1/2 litre water
3-4 black cardamoms
about half a medium ginger piece sliced
handful of chopped coriander
salt according to your taste-buds
It is probably one of the most easiest Desi recipes.
