  • Brown Onion, diced: 1 large
  • Korma Indian Curry Paste: 1/3 cup (80 ml)
  • Canned Diced Tomatoes: 400g (14 oz)
  • Coconut Milk: 400 ml (13.5 fl oz)
  • Water: 1/2 cup (120 ml)
  • Chilli Flakes (optional): To taste
  • Fresh Cucumber: 1 large

Method

  • Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat (350°F or 175°C). Add the diced brown onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high (375°F or 190°C) and add the beef mince. Cook until thoroughly browned, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the korma curry paste, cooking for 2 minutes to release the flavors.
  • Pour in the diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and water. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low (300°F or 150°C) and let simmer gently for 20 minutes. Season with salt and chilli flakes to taste.
  • While the curry simmers, use a vegetable peeler to create cucumber ribbons and lightly toast the mini pappadums in a separate pan over medium heat (350°F or 175°C) for about 2 minutes or until crisp.
  • Serve the curry with cucumber ribbons, toasted pappadums, and a side of sweet mango chutney.
