Colonial beef curry for taste

Ingredients

2 tablespoons sunflower oil

1 onion, finely sliced

800g (1lb 12oz) lean chuck steak, cut into 4cm (1½ in) cubes, fat removed

2-3 tablespoons plain flour

Salt
2 tablespoons mild curry powder

½ teaspoon turmeric

1 tablespoon garam masala

600ml (1 pint) beef stock

2 bay leaves

1 heaped tablespoon sultanas or raisins


Juice of 1 lime

Instructions

Heat the oven to 140°C (275°F, gas mark 1). Heat half the oil in an ovenproof casserole, add the onion and cook until soft. Remove and set aside. Toss the steak in the flour to coat. Sprinkle lightly with salt, then heat the remaining oil in the casserole, add the meat and cook, stirring, until evenly browned.

Reduce the heat to low and return the onion to the pan. Stir in the curry powder, turmeric and garam masala and cook gently, stirring, for 2-3 minutes.

Add the stock, bay leaves and sultanas or raisins and bring to a simmer.

Pour in some water, if needed, to cover the meat. Cover and transfer to the oven
to cook for 2-3 hours until the meat is tender. Add any extra seasoning and
lime juice to taste, then serve with basmati rice and mango chutney
