Thai Beef Curry is a simple to make and absolutely delicious Thai curry recipe. The beef is simmered in a flavorful coconut curry broth until super tender. We add butternut squash which thickens the curry and adds the perfect sweetness. You'll love it!

Ingredients
- 2 lbs stewing beef cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 teaspoon each: salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil see notes
- 1 medium onion minced
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 4 cups beef stock
- 4 tablespoons red Thai curry paste
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 medium butternut squash chopped into 1-inch pieces (see notes)
- juice from 1 lime
- 15 ounce Can coconut milk
- sea salt to taste
- To serve: minced Thai basil or cilantro
Instructions
- Dry the beef with paper towels then season it with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the beef on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot.
- Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the beef stock, curry paste, and fish sauce and scrape off the dark bits (the fond) from the bottom of the pot.
- Add the beef to the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer gently for 1 hour.
- Add the squash to the pot and continue to cook for 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Add the coconut milk and lime juice and season to taste with salt. Serve with Thai basil or cilantro on top.
Notes
- Kabocha squash also works well in this recipe!
