Refer the ingredients for cooking beef. Take the drained beef pieces in a pressure cooker and add the ingredients one by one.
Mix the beef slices well with the masala. Add the vinegar. Pressure cook beef without adding water for around 30 minutes or until done. Time varies. Do not add extra water. Once it is fully cooked, cook further in cooker without lid to reduce the gravy until the masala is fully coated on the beef pieces. Keep the cooked beef aside.
For Garnishing:
Now refer the ingredients for garnishing. Heat coconut oil in a thick bottomed pan.
Fry the sliced shallots until it changes color.
Add crushed ginger and garlic. Saute until the raw small is gone. Keep aside the sauteed mixture once it is done.
In the same pan add 1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil and fry the beef in medium heat for around 15 minutes in low to medium flame.
Add the previously fried onion/garlic/ginger to it. Mix well and keep on frying.
Adjust salt only if required and add curry leaves. After around 15 minutes the beef color will change to black.
Now add pepper powder and garam masala. Mix it well and switch off.
