  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1-inch piece fresh ginger (grated)
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala

  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
  • Juice of 1 lime

Instructions

  1. Gather and prepare all ingredients: dice onion, mince garlic, grate ginger, and cube beef.
  2. In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt coconut oil. Brown the beef cubes for about 5-7 minutes and then set aside.

  5. Bring to a simmer; cover and reduce heat to low. Let it simmer for 20-25 minutes until beef is tender.
  6. While the curry simmers, prepare garlic naan by mixing flour, baking powder, salt, and yogurt to form dough. Roll out into flat circles.
  7. Cook naan in a hot skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  8. Serve curry garnished with fresh cilantro and lime juice alongside warm garlic naan.
