How to Make Easy Beef Curry

  1. Season beef cubes with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown beef in batches, then set aside.
  2. Add onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Stir in curry powder and red curry paste and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  4. Return the beef to the pot. Add diced tomatoes (undrained), coconut milk, vegetable broth, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until beef is tender. For a richer flavor, simmer longer (up to 2 hours).
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve hot over steamed rice with your favorite toppings.
