Hunter Beef Roast#SuperClubSaturday

Hunter beef is a method, where in, the meat is cured in curing salts/salt petre (potassium nitrite), this is similar to corned beef. This meat has to be refrigerated for at least 5 days in spices and salt petre to enhance the flavor of the meat.
Once cooked till fork tender, you can cut thin slices or shred the meat, use it as side dish or make sandwiches. It's delicious and aromatic.

Ingredients
1½ Kg Boneless Beef
6 Cloves Garlic
1 Inch Piece Ginger
5 Whole Red Chillies - broken in two paces
½ Cup Fresh Lemon Juice or Juice of 4 - 5 Lemons
2½ - 3 Teaspoons Salt or to taste
3 Tablespoons Jaggery or Brown Sugar 
1½ Tablespoon Salt Petre/Curing Salts
4 Cups Water
To Grind To A Coarse Powder 
1½ Tablespoon Salt Petre/Curing Salt 
1½ Teaspoons Level Cumin seeds 
2 Teaspoons Level Black Peppercorns
2 Teaspoons Level Cloves
4 Sticks ( An Inch Each) Cinnamon

Method
Fork the meat well with lemon juice and then add the paste, press the whole garlic cloves and small piece of ginger into the meat add the red chillies and rub i well into the meat. 
Tie the meat and the red chillies with thread into a nice long log. Keep it for 5 days  or more (maximum a week)in the refrigerator turning the sides every day.  After 5 days add the water and cook when the meat, turning after every 15 minutes check the water and add hot water if necessary. 
When the meat is fork tender, dry up all the water/stock. Cool the meat well then wrap it in a aluminum foil and refrigerate for a day or two. 
Cut it into thin slices or shred it as required and enjoy making sandwiches or as a side dish. 
I cooked this in the pressure cooker for 60 minutes, added only 500Ml water. One whistle on high flame then reduced the flame to low and cooked it for 55 to 60 minutes, depending on the cut of meat.

Kerala Beef Olarthiyathu - Pressure Cooker


Kerala Beef Olarthiyathu or Ularthiyathu is also known as Kerala beef fry. I have used fresh sliced coconut pieces for the tadka which gives this beef fry a fantastic taste and bite when you are enjoying this. Please use coconut oil to make then only you will get the original taste and flavor. 
You can enjoy this dish with variety of other dishes, it goes well as a side dish.

Ingredients
For The Marination

750 Grams Beef - cut into chunks
1½ Tablespoons Level Red Chilly powder
2½ Tablespoons Coriander powder
1 Teaspoon Level Black Pepper powder
½ Teaspoon Turmeric powder
1½ Teaspoon Kerala Style Homemade Garam Masala
1 Teaspoon Meat Masala
2" Piece Ginger
10 Big Cloves Garlic
1½ Tablespoons Vinegar
1½ Teaspoons Sea Salt
For The Tadka
1 Teaspoon Mustard seeds
1 Teaspoon Fennel seeds
8 Baby Onions - sliced
1/3 Cup Sliced Coconut Pieces
5 Sprigs Curry leaves
4 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
2 Green Chillies- slit

Method
Marinate cleaned beef with all the ingredients listed under for marination. Keep it aside for an hour at least in the refrigerator. I kept it overnight in the refrigerator.
Place this marinated beef in a pressure cooker, with 1½ cups of water. Take one whistle on high then reduce the flame to low and cook till done (mine took  25 minutest to cook - this depends on the quality of the meat). Once the pressure cools then only open the cooker. 
Check for doneness or cook it again till done. If there is any excess gravy or water dry it since this is a side dish, the gravy should be saucy thick ( it should coat the meat) and not thin.
For The Tadka
Now heat a pan with coconut oil and add mustard seeds, let it splutter, then add fennel seeds, curry leaves, and onion. Sauté the onions till it turn just light golden.
Now add coconut pieces and saute for 2 minutes.  
Pour this into cooked beef and mix it well. Cover it and let it cook on low flame for 2 minutes, so that the flavors marry each other. Switch off the flame it's ready.
Enjoy this yummy beef fry.
It really delicious, enjoyed this with appam a classic combination.  Can have this with dosa, crusty bread too.

My Notes 
Add generous amount of curry leaves and coconut oil.
