Kerala Style Beef Curry - From My Kitchen

Kerala Style Beef Curry

Kerala Style Beef Curry

Kerala style beef varatt is on the menu today! Layered Kerala porotta with beef is not a dish but an emotion to all Keralites! There will not be a single person who does not love this food combi in our place! This beef is well coated with some selected spices that go well with porotta and puttu!

As hotels are all closed due to the current situation and the food is all made by us during the weekends too, everyone is creating restaurant menus at home, isn’ it! I was craving a good porortta and beef since my friend shared a video in Whatsapp and by making this I satisfied my cravings! So what are you waiting for! Do try this!

For Kerala Porotta I used Lakshmi Nair’s recipe from youtube and it was a super hit here! This beef I made it semi thick gravy to go along with porotta! You can adjust the consistency according to your preference!

Enjoy with your fav roti!
