Spicy Beef Vindaloo Recipe
Report
This beef vindaloo recipe is always a popular curry dish. My version is wonderfully spicy, though you can easily adjust the heat and spice to your preference.

Instructions
- Add the beef to a large bowl.
- Mix your marinade by whisking together the vinegar and all of the seasonings. Pour it over the beef and rub it into the meat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Longer is better, such as overnight.
- Heat a large pan to medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the onion and peppers and cook about 4-5 minutes, until they soften up.
- Add the beef along with the marinade and cook another 5 minutes to nicely brown up the pieces.
- Add the tomato paste and cook another minute, stirring.
- Add the beef stock (You can also use chicken or veggie stock, or just water) and stir until the mixture thins out and becomes a sauce. You can add more broth or water if needed. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes, until the beef is cooked through and tender.
- Serve as is or over rice with fresh herbs and sprinkled chili flakes. Make it rain!
Notes
- This is definitely a hot and spicy dish. Some would say very hot, though you can dial back the heat by using milder chilies and going easy on the red chili flakes. If you're looking for an even HOTTER version, go with habanero peppers, or fiery ghost peppers, which will REALLY heat things up.
