1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion (finely chopped)
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
2 tbsp curry powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt (or to taste)
1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

Instructions

Gather and prepare all ingredients.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger; cook for another minute.
Add spices (curry powder, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, salt) to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes to toast them lightly.
Transfer this mixture to a slow cooker and add beef cubes, coconut milk, beef broth, and tomato paste. Mix well.
Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours until beef is tender.
Prepare toasted garlic naan while the curry cooks by brushing dough with melted butter and sprinkling minced garlic before toasting until golden brown.
Serve hot with naan and enjoy!
