Beef curries aren't all that common in India but this one's a cracker. We use diced shin for it, which does take longer to break down and become tender but repays you with amazing flavour and texture. The curry begins (as so many do) with a paste of onions, garlic and ginger, which we fry gently before adding curry leaves, a heap of spices, tomatoes and the beef. We cover the meat with coconut milk and a splash of cider vinegar. And then we wait. When the beef can fall apart at the pressure of a fork, we stir in toasted coconut and fresh coriander leaves and it's done.
