Lentil and Beef Curry Recipe
Lentil and Beef Curry

A spicy, stew-like dish made with yellow curry, lentils, spinach, carrots, and beef. I like to serve with rice or naan. The beef is good, and is used to appease my husband; however, I would really like to try it with sweet potato chunks instead. I am writing the recipe using beef, but you could substitute lamb, chicken, tofu, sweet potato, or even cauliflower. This is a thai-style yellow curry, not Indian. The following recipe is for a medium spice - I love hot curry, so I generally double the spice listed. If your tastes are milder, cut the spice listed in half and add to taste.Remember that salt enhances the flavor of a good curry, so even though there is sodium in the bouillon, if you are not as concerned with sodium intake then I recommend a little extra salt to taste.Sauteing the spices also enhance their flavor rather than adding them later.I cannot take much credit for this recipe because I modified it from: http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=10000000222618However, I still hope you enjoy it and find a way to make it your own as I have! Once I try the sweet potato substitution, I will be sure to update.
