It's unusual to come across Indian beef curries, as the majority Hindu population don't eat it - however this rich beef curry, also known as beef ularthiyathu (ularthu translates as ‘dry preparation’) is very popular amongst the Christian community in Kerala, South India. It's cooked until all of the liquid has evaporated and the meat is starting to fry and crisp around the edges, which really concentrates the flavours and makes this simple curry incredibly delicious. It's pairs perfectly with the fresh tomato chutney on the side, which provides a real contrast.
