- Mustard seeds — Toasting the mustard seeds before adding them to the dish will enhance their flavor.
- Cumin seeds — Dry roast the cumin seeds in a pan for a few seconds to release their aroma.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier version, increase the amount of red chili powder or add additional green chilies.
- You can add vegetables like potatoes or carrots to the stew for added flavor and texture.
- Marinating the beef in yogurt and spices for a few hours before cooking can make it even more tender.
- Adjust the cooking time based on the desired tenderness of the beef.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day, as the flavors tend to deepen and intensify.
