Ingredients
----BARB DAY----
2 lb beef chuck cut into 1 cubes
14 cup garlic
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
4 small hot red chiles
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
3/4 teaspoon tumeric
1 teaspoon dry english mustard
1 lemon salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger
2 bay leaves
5 cloves; whole
3 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 small onion
1/2 cup tomato paste
1 clarified butter salt and pepper t; o taste
1/4 cup sugar
Directions: How to Cook Beef Vindaloo
Place the garlic and vinegar into a blender and mix to a smooth paste. Remove the tops and bottoms of the chiles and remove the seeds. (do NOT put your fingers near your eyes, or they will become inflamed). Add the peppers to the blended paste. Put cumin seeds, tumeric, mustard, ginger, salt and sugar into a small bowl and mix together. Pour this mixture into the blender. Remove the peel from the lemon, squeeze the juice, discard the pips and chop the inner pulp. Add the juice and the pulp to the blender, then blend thouroughly. Place the beef into a bowl and pour the blended mixture over it. Stir in the poppy seeds and marinate for two hours. (Be careful not to spill this marinade, or you might have to move from your home! ) After meat is marinated, finely slice the onion. Pour some clarified butter a skillet over med. heat, and add the onions. Cook until opaque. Add the bay leaves and cloves. With a slotted spoon, lift the meat from the marinade and add to the frying onions, increasing the heat so that the meat is sealed quickly. When the meat is sealed all over, add the marinade. Cover tightly, reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour. After the meat has cooked for 1 hour, add the tomato paste, stirring it thoroughly into the meat mixture, and cook for another 30 min. When the meat is tender, serve at once - piping hot. This is very hot! Nice served with plain boiled or steamed long grain rice. For a nice cooling touch you might serve with a lime cordial. Note: When using the hot chilies, remove the placenta as well as the seeds (the inside fleshy membrane) as it contains Capucin and can cause inflamation if you eat too much.
Source: Graham Kerr book , copy-righted 1971, called "The Galloping Gourmet TV Cookbook" -Vol 6. I have made this many, many times, and love it. I hope you will enjoy it for me, because my old stomach just can't take it like it once did, and I have to tone down the recipe to make it . But full-strngth it is fabulous if you like things HOT and garlicky! Good luck to those who are breathing in near you, for several days after you consume this dish !

I agree, this dish is great. Cures any hangover. The only down side is that
it burns more coming out than it does going in... so brace yourself for
some after-burning but don't let it discourage you! This dish is a great
substitute for fast food because it contains a respectable 'kick'.

I can only assume the original poster meant 1/4 cup of garlic, because I
put 14 cups of garlic in and it was awful!

Yep, the recipe is rubbish. It needs to be re-written with some input from
a brain...I am still trying to find a 2 lb cube of chuck, should I stitch
the bits together?

Well I can certainly tell who cooks and who doesn't here. I would have
probably assumed that the 14 cups of garlic was a typo and that it would
have been a clove of garlic. Also since some don't know, vindaloo is a
paste and is actually very good when done well. Tony, you don't have to go
out and buy one piece of meat, lol, beef cubes would have done fine, the
meat has to be cut anyway. Regards from Canada.

Whether you add 14 cups of garlic or 2 lb cube of chuck, you obviously have
no clue how to reheat baked beans..my advice..instant noodles are
easy..just had boiling water..careful don't burn yourself!!

I tried it and it doesn't taste like the proper Beef Vindaloo. Something is
wrong somewhere.

It's a very good BASE for a recipe. Yes, there are typos, but if you use
some common sense (14 cups of garlic! I can only assume the poster who
claims they used this amount is being sarcastic, because someone that
intellectually impaired would be in care and not allowed in a kitchen) and
add the ingredients in amount you think suit your taste, you'll get a
delicious curry.

Yawn - how many people have to quote the ingredients, we get it, the poster
is a tad simple... The method to cooking this makes no sense either. This
would have been the worst waste of 5 minutes ever, if it wasn't for the
comments...

Lovely curry, the only theing I would add to this recipe is a couple of
onions, blended in the food processor with the garlic (in addition to the
onion you would slice and fry). Also, throw in a stick of cinamon (or a
teaspoon of cinnamon powder with the marinade mix. For best results, don't
eat straight away -rule of the thumb with curries- keep overnight in the
fridge and consume next day after very gentle and slow heating. The
powdered spices would regain composure, shape and flavour and would open
up. This is the simplest secret of a good curry: its cooked the day before
and had an overnight in your fridge!!!! Mark my words.

Regarding the appalling typos, I agree. I think the wuthor means 1/4
(quarter of a cup garlic I would use one full bulb with 2 Lbs. of beef.
ANother nice twist is to throw into the blender along with the garlic -and
onions, as per my suggestion- a morcel of fresh ginger, skin scraped off
(the size of a walnut). Can't go wrong!

I took some of this recipe and mixed it with another Goan beef vindaloo
recipe. It used coconut oil which is a key ingredient in any east indian
recipe. Also missing was the potatoes, this is where this dish takes its
name - Vin and Loo - Loo is the portuguese intervention in goan cooking.
Loo is the name for potatoes and Vin is for wine or vinegar.
I also added some cinamon sticks which makes a difference.
Cooking is an art not a science! be prepared to mess around with recipes.
When making the masala, I always add some brown sugar and some water. You
need the liquid.
