Beef & Koorka (Chinese potato) stir fry


Koorka or Chinese potato is a favourite vegetable in our family. Koorka mezhukupuratti and hot rice itself is  a fulfilling meal. I use veggies in beef to reduce the quantity of meat intake which can keep a check on the calories while not compromising on the taste.

the recipe

Beef   (boiled with ginger, pepper and green chillies) - 500 gms

Koorka, (boiled) - 200 gms
Small onion, chopped - 10 - 15
Ginger, finely chopped - 1 tsp
Garlic, finely chopped - 1 tbsp
Curry leaves - 1 sprig
Turmeric powder - 1/4 - 1/2 tsp
Chilly powder - 3/4 tsp
Pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
Garam Masala - 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt - to taste
Oil - 2 tbsp

the method

Heat oil in a pan and add the finely chopped garlic. When light brown add onion and stir till translucent. Add the ginger and curry leaves. Saute for a while and add chilly, turmeric, coriander, pepper and garam masala. Stir for a minute and add the boiled beef with about 1/4 cup of its stock. Add the boiled koorka. In medium heat keep stirring till beef and koorka is mixed well and the beef stock is completely evaporated. Serve with rice.
