Making a one pot beef curry
This delicious curry can be made to suit your tastes. I used a red curry paste to give the dish a warm russet red color. If you like your curry more spicy just add a bit more of the paste to the pan. Colorful sweet peppers gives a pretty look to the finished dish and coconut milk gives the sauce a creamy texture that pairs well with the curry flavor.
The list of ingredients looks long, but the recipe is really very easy to prepare. Yay for one pot meals!
Each step of the cooking process adds an extra layer to the finished taste of the dish. I love how easy this one pot beef curry is to make! Start by heating the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat and cook the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes until it is soft and translucent.
Add the beef cuber and cook until they are lightly lightly browned. The onions will start to caramelize, taking on a lovely sweet flavor.
Stir in the red curry paste and cook it for a few minutes to bring out the lovely red color in the Thai curry sauce.
Stir in the coconut milk and coconut sugar (omit the sugar for Whole30) and bring the pan to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring the mixture occasionally.
Mix in the sweet peppers, sliced Brussels sprouts, beef stock, fish sauce and lime juice. Just look at the color that this adds to the dish! Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the meat is tender.
The final step is to thicken the sauce with arrowroot powder and beef stock and add the parsley and basil to add a lovely fresh herb finish.

This easy one pot beef curry has a wonderful spicy flavor. There is a lot of texture in this dish from the vegetables and the beef is tender and delicious. The sauce is spicy with a slight taste of sweetness and has a lovely creamy finish that comes from the coconut milk.
