Chill braised beef curry for dinner

Chill braised beef curry for dinner
A simple braise is really all about cooking the beef gently to make sure it is not only tender, but juicy – so fast boiling is out. You can add things like potatoes, yams or pumpkin to the braise on this recipe, but I suggest you cook them in boiling salted water separately and fold them through the dish when it is cooked. This not only makes it easier, but the vegetables keep their own flavour and it adds complexity to the dish.
so guys let's started this for your dinner, i hope you will enjoy this .
