Spicy Beef Hotpot


Super easy and healthy alternative to buying takeaway Indian at lunchtimes. Put it on before you start cooking dinner for the night and it'll be ready after you've cleared the table.
Not the prettiest dish, but definetly hearty and great for winter.

400g beef steak I used rump, you can use, topside or chuck (use sirloin or eye fillet if you're feeling flush!)
Spray oil
1 large onion diced
2 carrots chopped
1t Cumin seeds or powder
1t tumeric
1t dried Corriander
dash cayenne pepper (you can use 1t minced chillis & cracked pepper if u want)
1 small potato chopped
2c beef stock (I mixed it from powder)


Heat large pot till really hot, spray with oil. Brown beef (3-5mins) add onion & carrot, stirfry 1min). Add spices & stir through. Add rest of the ingredients. Bring to the boil then simmer for 1-2hours. Until the meat the carrots are soft and the meat crumbles in your mouth. Keep an eye on it, you may need to add extra water.

Serve with rice or bread if you need some carbs.
