Dark-magics of my kitchen-1: Fastest, effortless, yet delicious?

One of the laziest souls on earth trying to be creative here! Nice!
But well, once in a while deviating from the usual self is not bad!

I believe it is going to be the cheapest and fastest beef curry in history!

Brace yourself! (and mother forgive me for being such a catastrophic cook)

Well, I never take pride in that I am a good cook. I barely cook when it's almost the end of the world, like my stomach, is growling for days. Eventually, when my brain threaten me that it'll stop working if I don't provide food to my stomach anytime soon!
And that has to be a fairly cooked and warm meal!
How audacious! Those bunch of selfish stupid hooligans!

Anyway so as I was saying, I barely cook.
I am renowned for beef-freak amongst my peers!
Yet I can count how many times I have cooked beef myself. Perhaps 3/4 times in the last 5/6/years!
Hence, today is one of those venus-transit days!

The most effortless, instant yet delicious way to cook beef I have made! Don't forget folks, this is just "edible-but-tasty-enough" not the ideal one.

  • Mince the onions into the thinnest pieces.
    I use sunflower oil usually for cooking (Though the majority in this country use Soybean-oil)
  • Warm the oil in slow ignition and spread the onions inside. Keep heating it until it gets a brownish color.

  • Then add small pieces of cinnamon, and cardamon in it. Once you feel the fragrance is filling the atmosphere, it's time to add the rest of the powdered spices.
  • In one pot, mix the powdered Cumin, Coriander, Ginger, and Red chili with some water. (Or a rather quicker way to buy "Meat mix" spices and just add 3/4 teaspoon with water.)
    These measurements?
    No idea! Just the hunch! I
    know it sounds absurd but that's how it is.

You just trust your right hand and that's all for the tricks!

(Small amount cumin, 2/3 teaspoon coriander, and red Chili according to your taste)
Anyway add the soupy spices with the onion and wait for 2/3 minutes until it becomes sticky and gravy.

You can smell the fragrance just by looking at it, can't you!

  • Add the meat. Mix it with a big spoon with the spices properly. After a couple of minutes add potato!
    (Uhhh...my favorite part of the cooking!
    (What is more delicious than beef curry? The potato of the beef curry!)

    Ufff...look at the contrast!
  • Keep stirring the potatoes, beef, and spices with a big spoon until all the gravy shreds are gone and the curry almost starts to burn!
    Then add water.
    I love the broth of beef curry.
    So I tend to add an unnecessary amount of water but usually, perhaps 7/8 cups of fresh water are aqueduct.

    Ahh the broth! Don't droll!
  • Increase the ignition a little to boil. The intention is to boil the meat and potatoes properly while increasing the condiment
    And then go take a nap for half an hour!
    And there it is!
    Potato-beef curry is all set to be served with warm rice!
    Ohhh damn! Did I forget SALT!!!
    Yes! Do not miss to add salt after you add the water to boil it!
