Indian Beef Vindaloo

Indian Beef Vindaloo is a dish with a bad reputation that It does not deserve. When made correctly, this is a divine Goan curry that will not dissolve your taste buds. Vindaloo literally means meat in garlic wine marinade. The four “C’s” always work together, Coriander, Cardamom, Cinnamon and Cayenne. This is a perfect main dish served with piping hot fluffy basmati rice and a warm piece of pitta bread. Also, served with sour cream will help those who find it a little too hot. Overall, Indian Beef Vindaloo is one of those dishes you really must experience. The flavours blend so well together and create a meal that you will want to cook again.
