Instructions
Chop the beef pieces into very small bite-size pieces.
Grind peppercorns into a coarse powder.
Heat oil in a pressure cooker and add 2 medium sizes of finely chopped onion. Saute till light brown.
Add 3 tablespoons of finely chopped garlic and fry for 1 minute on medium heat.
Now add chopped tomato along with beef, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, green chilies, vinegar, and salt. Stir well and cook for 1 whistle on medium heat. Do not overcook the beef as the pieces are very small and it cooks much faster.
Release the steam and open the lid. Try to cook a little more to reduce the water or till the beef curry is dry.
Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a kadhai and add sliced onion, sliced capsicum, green chilies, dry red chilies, and curry leaves. Saute on high heat and then add freshly ground black pepper.
Finally, add the cooked beef curry into the kadhai and stir well till beef is well combined with the onion mixture. Add salt if needed. Cook on high heat for 1 minute and then turn off the heat.
Serve hot with roti or steamed rice.
Notes
Note: This dish can be prepared in a regular saucepan too. By doing this the cooking time will be more compared to cooking in a pressure cooker.
