How to Make Sri Lankan Beef Curry (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Heat oil in a heavy pan over medium heat. Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown. Add garlic, ginger, curry leaves, cinnamon stick, and green chilli. Stir well until aromatic.
Step 2: Add Larich Beef Curry Mix
Lower the heat and add the Larich Beef Curry Mix. Stir continuously for 30–40 seconds to release the spices’ aroma without burning.
Step 3: Cook the Beef
Add the beef pieces and mix well until all pieces are well coated with the spice mixture. Cook for 5–7 minutes until the beef starts to release its natural juices.
Step 4: Simmer the Curry
Add enough water to cover the beef, season with salt, cover the pan, and simmer on low heat for 45–60 minutes (or pressure cook for faster results) until the beef is tender.
Step 5: Finish with Coconut Milk
Once the beef is cooked, add thick coconut milk and simmer for another 5–10 minutes until the gravy thickens and becomes rich and glossy. Turn off the heat.
