Notes
- If you don't have a food processor, you could finely chop and mince the veg instead. It won't be as thick as this, but it's still a delicious curried beef recipe!
- Also, you don't need to sear your beef or saute onions if you don't want to. But, I do recommend not skipping this step if you have the time. By frying first, it'll be a more caramelised and better easy beef curry recipe!
- For an unofficial Slimming World beef curry, ensure all fat is removed on the beef and use Frylight instead of oil for low fat
