Best 6 Gosht Vindaloo Curry Recipes

CLASSIC CHICKEN VINDALOO CURRY

Steps:

• Gather your ingredients.
• Heat a heavy skillet to hot but not smoking, add the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, peppercorn, cardamom seeds, and cloves. Toast the seeds for 30 to 45 seconds, constantly shaking the pan to prevent burning, until the spices give off a delicious fragrance.
• Tip the toasted seeds into a food processor or spice grinder and blitz to create a powder. Add the chili flakes, turmeric, sugar, ginger and garlic paste and whizz again. Finally, add the tomato puree and garam masala, and blitz again. You should now have a thick, pungent paste.
• Place the paste into a glass bowl, add the vinegar, and stir thoroughly. Add the cubed chicken and stir to coat all the pieces evenly. Cover and leave to marinate for 30 to 45 minutes.
• Heat a skillet large enough to hold all the ingredients over medium heat, add the oil, and when hot, add the sliced onions and cook slowly to soften but not brown for 15 minutes. Add the chicken plus the marinade and the stock and stir well. Cook over medium heat for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickened. Taste and add the salt and pepper. If the vindaloo is too vinegary, add soft dark brown sugar a little at a time to your taste.
• Serve immediately garnished with the cilantro, and with fluffy basmati rice , mango chutney, and plain yogurt on the side.

GOAN BEEF CURRY WITH VINEGAR: BEEF VINDALOO

Steps:

• For the wet masala: In a small skillet over medium-high heat, toast the cumin seeds, cinnamon bark, cloves, and peppercorns until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour into a spice grinder and process until powdered. In a small food processor or blender, combine the toasted spice mix and the rest of the wet masala ingredients. Process until smooth.
• Place a large (preferably nonstick) pot over high heat and add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the onions and serrano pepper. Stirring frequently, saute the onions until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Don't let them burn! Turn the heat down to medium-high if they're starting to burn.
• Add the ground wet masala, taking care because it will sizzle wildly and steam up your glasses, if you wear them. Stir quite vigorously and turn down the heat if it's bubbling too furiously. Don't wash the food processor bowl yet. Keep stirring, with short pauses, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the masala comes together as one mass, about 2 minutes. Also, you may see little droplets of oil on the perimeter of the masala. That's a good sign!
• Quickly add the meat and stir, coating the meat in the masala. Stir and cook about 5 minutes until the meat browns.
• Remember that dirty food processor bowl? Fill it with 1 cup of hot water (from the tap is fine), swirl it around so it picks up any leftover masala, and pour that into the pot. Add salt and pepper, stir, bring the curry to a boil, and then turn it down to a simmer. Cover and cook 30 minutes. Then cook with the lid ajar for another 10 minutes to thicken the gravy slightly. Check the meat at the end of the cooking time; it should be tender and not chewy at all. Adjust the salt if you like, and serve over rice or with chapatis (whole wheat griddle bread).
• Throw the garlic, ginger, and canola oil in a mini-food processor and let it go until it forms a semi-smooth paste. There will still be tiny little pieces in there, but overall, it should resemble a paste.
• Save what you don't use in a small glass jar. It should last in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks. It's a delicious addition to marinades, pasta sauces, stir fry sauces, slow-cooker recipes, gravy etc. We always had a jar of this stuff in our fridge growing up.

PORK OR LAMB VINDALOO

Steps:

• Combine the mustard, cumin, turmeric, cayenne, salt, and vinegar in a cup. Mix well.
• Put the oil in a large, nonstick frying pan and set over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, put in the onion. Stir and fry until it is medium brown. Put in the garlic. Stir and fry for 30 seconds. Put in the spice paste. Stir and fry for a minute. Put in the meat. Stir and fry for about 3 minutes. Then add the coconut milk and 2/3 cup water if you are cooking continuously in a pressure cooker, or 1 cup water if you are to cook in the frying pan. (Transfer to a pressure cooker at this stage if that is your intention.) Cover and either bring up to pressure, or bring to a boil if you are using the frying pan. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes in the pressure cooker and 60 to 70 minutes in the frying pan.

CHICKEN VINDALOO

Steps:

• Toast the turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander, cloves, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-low heat until the spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir the spices constantly as they toast, taking care that they do not burn. Stir in the olive oil, onion, garlic, and ginger. Increase heat to medium, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the tomato paste until no lumps of paste remain. Add the chicken, potatoes, tomatoes, chicken broth, wine vinegar, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. Remove the cover, and cook 5 minutes more to thicken slightly. Season to taste with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to serve.
