  • 1 inch piece fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste

Instructions

  4. Stir in tomato paste and crushed tomatoes. Add curry powder and other spices; mix well.
  5. Pour in beef broth and coconut milk; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 1.5 hours until tender.

Keywords: Use chicken instead of beef for a lighter option; adjust cooking time accordingly. For added flavor in the naan, mix minced garlic into the dough or brush with garlic-infused butter while cooking. Customize spice levels according to your preference.
