Thai Beef Curry is a simple to make and absolutely delicious Thai curry recipe. The beef is simmered in a flavorful coconut curry broth until super tender. We add butternut squash which thickens the curry and adds the perfect sweetness. You'll love it! 

Thai Beef Curry

lbs stewing beef, cut into bite-sized pieces

EACH: salt and pepper

cooking oil (see notes)

onion,

ginger

garlic cloves,

beef stock (try making your own!)

red Thai curry paste

fish sauce

butternut squash, chopped into 1-inch pieces (see notes)

lime

coconut milk

Sea salt,

To serve: minced Thai basil or cilantro

Dry the beef with paper towels then season it with salt and pepper.

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the beef on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot.

Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the beef stock, curry paste, and fish sauce and scrape off the dark bits (the fond) from the bottom of the pot.

Add the beef to the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer gently for 1 hour.

Add the squash to the pot and continue to cook for 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Add the coconut milk and lime juice and season to taste with salt. Serve with Thai basil or cilantro on top.

Thai Yellow Curry with Beef and Potatoes

shallots

garlic

coriander

red Thai chiles

turmeric

curry powder

cilantro

shrimp paste*

salt

lemongrass paste

beef

water, divided

coconut cream (canned)*

Yukon gold potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces

shallot, thinly sliced

CURRY PASTE (one hour)

Heat a cast-iron pan over medium high heat. Wrap the garlic and shallots in foil (with their paper on) and place on the skillet for 25 minutes, flipping once half way through. Remove from heat and cool, and roughly chop. Set aside. Layer the ginger and galangal in a single layer and wrap with foil. Place in the skillet and heat for about 10 minutes flipping once halfway through. Place garlic, shallots, ginger, galangal, and all other ingredients for the curry paste in a blender or food processor. Pulse until mostly smooth. Use water from the chiles to help the mixture run through the blender as needed. This will make a little more than 2 cups &#8211; set 3/4 cup aside for this recipe and freeze or refrigerate the rest for later.

BEEF (one hour)

Heat the light coconut milk in a deep pot. Add the beef and simmer for 45 minutes. Add 1 cup water and simmer another 15-20 minutes. Set aside; do not drain.

CURRY (one hour)

Heat the coconut cream in a deep pot until bubbling and starting to thicken a bit. Add about 3/4 cup curry paste and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, shallots, beef, and 1/2 cup of the reserved coconut milk from step two. Stir in 3 cups water. Simmer for 30-45 minutes until potatoes are tender. Add the sugar, fish sauce, cilantro. Serve over jasmine rice.

hubby had some goat soup recently on vaca in Bonaire and loved it.  Bought a 2nd bowl!

Goat curry is actually really delicious; better than Lamb some would say (like me) - Cook it as a Rogan Josh, Korma, or Chettinad

I have to admit this is pretty impressive!

A recipe after my own heart!
I love making my own curry pastes... you only have to do it every once in a while (in a big batch!) and then I usually freeze the leftovers in an ice cube tray so I have little pieces ready to go to toss into whatever I'm making. I would totally make this any day of the week! Can't wait to give it a go.

Ice cube trays are great  for freezing sauces as well as fresh squeezed limes or lemons or ice cubes with grated citrus peel, then remove cubes store in containers in freezer zip lock bags or tubs,1 full cube is about 2 tablespoons,but measure yours to be sure
