Introduction
A classic, rich dish perfect for lunch boxes. Beef brisket is first seared to develop a steak-like aroma, then slow-cooked in a pressure cooker with onions, tomatoes, and potatoes. Finally, chopped curry cubes are stirred in to create a tender, flavorful, and thick curry sauce.
Step 1
Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks, remove the stems and cut the tomatoes into pieces, dice the onions, and mince the garlic and ginger.
Step 2
Place the prepared potatoes, tomatoes, diced onions, minced garlic, and minced ginger into the pressure cooker.
Step 3
Cut the beef brisket (beef rib fingers) into large segments, avoiding pieces that are too small to prevent them from shrinking too much during cooking.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan, sear the beef brisket to render the fat and achieve a brown, charred aroma, until the surface smells like a seared steak.
Step 5
Pour enough water into the frying pan to cover the beef (add a splash of wine if desired for extra aroma), bring to a boil, then transfer the beef and the broth into the pressure cooker.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Beef brisket shrinks during cooking; keep pieces large when cutting, and trim them after cooking if needed. ⚠️
Searing the beef brisket triggers the Maillard reaction, bringing out a steak-like aroma and enriching the broth base. 🔥
Curry cubes are already salty, so add only a tiny amount of salt initially; adjust seasoning after the cubes have melted. 💡
Chop the curry cubes with a knife before adding them to the pot to ensure they melt quickly and evenly. 🔪
This recipe uses a pressure cooker for 25 minutes; if using a regular pot, it will take about 40 to 50 minutes. ⏱️
