hawaiian style beef curry stew
The local drive inn in Hawaii used to serve a delicious Beef Curry Stew every week. I decided to see if I could recreate it, with a couple of fresh additions to make it my own. My hubby said to make sure I make this again, soon!

How To Make hawaiian style beef curry stew
-
1Trim fat from stew meat, or trim fat from roast and cut into uniform pieces, approximately 2 inch cubes.
-
2Combine spices in a bowl and set aside.
-
3Brown beef chunks in hot oil in a large skillet until all sides are browned. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer meat to a dutch oven.
-
4Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and saute until fragrant, adding additional oil if needed. Add spices to the pan and toast, stirring constantly until fragrant, approximately one minute.
-
5Add salt, tomato paste, honey, and beef broth to skillet, stirring to combine. Simmer until bubbly and heated through. Add ingredients to dutch oven.
-
6Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
7Meanwhile, saute onions, green beans and bok choy in skillet over medium heat until crisp tender. Add to stew when meat and vegetables are tender.
-
8Add the coconut milk to the stew and let it come back to temperature. Serve with cilantro and a squeeze of lemon.
-
9Note: I use Spice House spices for the best flavor. You may use hot curry powder instead of sweet if you prefer a spicier curry.
