Red Beef Curry
– Cathedral Cellar Shiraz
I love curry! Full stop. There is nothing that gets my heart racing quicker than the prospect of cooking a large pot of curry for family and friends. It is the gift that keeps on giving and always tastes better the next day. This is my own invention for an Indian red Curry – you can elaborate with your own favourite added masalas, chillies and spic-es. You can also add more vegetables of your choice to stretch this dish even further. It is really easy to prepare and goes great with the Cathedral Cellar Shiraz
