Heat coconut oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add diced beef chuck to the pot and sear until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same pot, add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add curry powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, and black pepper, stirring to coat the onions and garlic evenly.
Pour in the coconut milk and beef broth into the pot, stirring to combine with the spices.
Add tomato paste and bay leaves, mixing well.
Return the seared beef to the pot, stirring to ensure the beef is submerged in the liquid.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then cover the pot and reduce the heat to low.
Allow the curry to cook for about 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the sauce is rich and thickened.
Remove the bay leaves before serving.
Stir in chopped fresh cilantro and lime juice just before serving to add freshness and acidity.
Serve the dairy-free beef curry sauce over rice or noodles as desired.
