How to Make Curried Ground Beef
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large Dutch oven or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté for 7-8 minutes until softened. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and 1 inch ginger, grated, during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- Add 1 pound ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons curry powder, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 cup beef broth, and 1/2 cup chopped cilantro.
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
- Add 1 large Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and diced. Cook uncovered for another 25-30 minutes, or until apples are tender.
- If the mixture is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water or beef broth until desired consistency is reached.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot over cooked rice or couscous.
