طريقة التحضير

Crush the garlic and ginger to a paste. Mix the beef with yogurt, half the ginger-garlic paste, turmeric, chili powder, and salt, and marinate for 30 minutes.
Heat the mustard oil until it smokes lightly, then fry the sliced onions over medium heat until deep golden brown.
Add the bay leaves and the remaining ginger-garlic paste and fry until the raw smell fades.
Add the marinated beef and cook on high heat, stirring, until the meat releases its juices.
Lower the heat, cover, and braise until the beef is tender and the liquid has almost evaporated, about 50–60 minutes, adding a splash of water only if it sticks.
Stir in the cumin, coriander, and garam masala and fry uncovered until the beef is dark brown, dry, and coated in a thick spice paste.
Finish with slit green chilies, rest a few minutes, and serve hot with rice or paratha.
