Beef And Butter Bean Curry

Ingredients:

8 oz (1 cup) lean beef, diced
5 oz (2/3 cup) butter beans (Lima beans)
1 small onion
1 garlic clove
small piece of fresh ginger, chopped
pinch ground turmeric
2 tbsp ghee (see method at top of recipe list)
2 fl oz (1/4 cup) water

Method:

Blend the onion garlic, ginger and turmeric in a food processor until a paste is formed.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the paste carefully (it may spit!).
Stir the paste into the oil, lower the heat and cook gently for about 10 mins. If the mixture becomes dry, add a little water.
When the paste is cooked, it will be golden brown and sizzling - at this point, add the beef and fry gently, stirring for several minutes.
Add the water, cover, then simmer slowly until the meat is almost cooked.
Add the butter beans (Lima beans) and continue cooking until the meat is tender.
Chop well and serve with white rice.
