Directions: |
Directions:Season beef generously with salt. Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook beef, turning occasionally, until deeply browned on all sides, 8 - 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Pour off all but 1 T. fat from pot. Reduce heat to medium; add butter, onion, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring often and scraping up browned bits, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add curry; cook stirring, until it starts to stick to pot, about 3 minutes. Stir in bay leaves, coconut milk, and 1 c. water. Return beef to pot. Season with salt and bring to a simmer. Cook partially covered, until beef is just for-tender, 30 - 35 minutes.
Add potatoes, bring to a simmer, and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until beef and potatoes are tender, 25 - 35 minutes. Thin with water if needed; season with salt. Serve over rice, topped with cilantro, chile or jalapeno and lime wedges. |
