- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece Fresh ginger
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 400 ml Canned coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander

- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder

Instructions
Cut the plant-based beef chunks into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
Deseed and cut the red and green bell peppers into square pieces. Peel and cut the onion into quarters and separate the layers.
Peel and finely chop the garlic and ginger.
In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the piece-size plant-based beef in a single layer and fry until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the chopped garlic and ginger, sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste and spices - ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Cook the paste and spices for a minute until they are well combined and aromatic.
Add the bell peppers and onion to the pan. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
Return the browned plant-based beef to the pan. Pour in the coconut milk and mix well. Season with salt.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the vegetables to cook through.
Stir in chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of rice or naan.
