Creamy Coconut Beef Curry:

Creamy coconut beef curry has all the amazing flavours you would expect from a cream based curry. But it’s made with healthier creamed coconut so lower in calories and fat. This is a mild curry and it’s really easy to make too.

Ceamy coconut beef curry served in a balti dish with a bowl of rice and bottle of beer in the background.

You’ll love this deliciously mild, creamy coconut beef curry.

It’s a beef curry recipe that really requires little effort and relatively few spices and ingredients.

But this curry has a huge amount of flavour!

The tender chunks of beef absorb the coconut and mild spice flavours whilst simmering away on your stove.

Creating a delicious smell and allowing you to get on with other things!

I made this beef coconut curry recipe earlier on this year

I’d not long returned from some adventures in africa.

It reminded me of the 4 – 6 different curries that were available to choose at each meal (and I mean breakfast, lunch and dinner!)!

Zanzibar, one of our destinations grows and exports its own spices.

Plus the coconuts they used for cooking were fetched right down off the tree, as fresh as can be!

Obviously, here in Scotland I can’t get spices as fresh as those just picked in Zanzibar!

And anyone who claims they’ve just picked a coconut fresh from a tree here, quite clearly is telling fibs. 😆

But with this creamy coconut beef curry, I have recreated one of those fresh coconut beef curries that I was lucky enough to experience in Zanzibar.

It’s also less fattening but still as tasty a reminder of those fantastic African flavours.

My other half and I tend not to have beef very often now, favouring more of a Mediterranean style diet with our 80/20 rule.

But when we do, I use beef to make something amazing and special. Like this creamy coconut beef curry.

And….can you tell it was the middle of winter when I made this earlier on this year?

I had to chase the rays of winter sunshine around our kitchen just to get the pictures to not look as if though I was photographing in a cave!

This creamy coconut beef curry has all the amazing flavours that you would expect from a dairy cream based curry but, it’s made with healthier creamed coconut and it’s lower in calories and fat. This is a mild curry and it’s really easy to make too.

Ingredients

  • Low calorie cooking spray
  • One large onion finely diced
  • 2 cloves large garlic finely chopped
  • 35 g fresh ginger finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon mild chilli powder
  • 250 g stewing / casserole beef cubed
  • 500 ml beef stock
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 35 g grated creamed coconut
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped coriander

Instructions

  • Spray the bottom of a large saucepan with the low fat cooking spray about 5 times. Turn the heat on high, then when the oil spray starts to bubble turn down the heat add the onion and saute, stirring constantly to prevent burning for about 3 – 4 minutes.

  • Add the garlic and ginger, again stirring constantly for a further 1 – 2 minutes.

  • Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric and mild chilli powder, stir together for 1 minute to allow the flavours to release.

  • Add 5 tbsp. warm water to prevent any burning and stir for 1 – 2 minutes.

  • Blitz the onion spice mixture in a food processor / blender or with a stick blender to a paste consistency.

  • Return the paste to the pan, stir in the beef, and brown it within the paste, about 3 – 4 minutes.

  • Add the beef stock, bring the stock to the boil, turn down to a gentle simmer, add the salt, put the lid on and cook for 1 hour stirring every now and then until the sauce has thickened and beef is tender.

  • Stir in the grated creamed coconut and simmer for a further 15 minutes until a creamy coconut consistency is achieved.

  • Serve garnished with coriander.
