Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 kg Basmati Rice
  • 5 Cups Beef Stock
  • 2 medium Onion
  • 5 chopped cloves Garlic
  • 2 Green Chilli
  • 1 small Tomato
  • 2 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 3 tablespoons Oil
  • 1 ½ tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp Cloves
  • 1/2 tsp Bay Leaf

Directions

  1. Wash the beef and cut into large pieces. Season lightly with salt and turmeric.
  2. Heat ghee/oil in a large pot. Add sliced onions and sauté until light golden.
  3. Add garlic, green chilies, and tomato; cook until softened.
  4. Add the mandi spice mix: coriander, cumin, black pepper, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and bay leaves.
  5. Add beef pieces and stir on medium heat until the meat is well coated with spices.
  6. Pour in water or beef stock. Cover and simmer until beef is tender (about 1.5–2 hours depending on cut).
  7. Remove beef carefully and set aside. Strain and measure the broth.
  8. Add washed, soaked basmati rice to the broth (usually 1 cup rice = 1.5–2 cups liquid). Adjust seasoning and bring to a boil.
  9. Lower heat, cover, and cook the rice until fluffy.
  10. Place the beef pieces over the rice and steam on low heat for 10 minutes so flavors combine.
  11. Optional: For smoky flavor, place a small hot charcoal on foil in the pot, add 1 tsp butter/oil, immediately cover for 5 minutes. Remove coal before serving.
  12. Fluff rice and serve beef mandi with salad or chutney.
