Our slowly cooked beef korma curry is so good we had to turn it into a pie. With a fragrant mix of herbs and spices and tender melt-in-your-mouth beef, perfectly encased in flaky pastry this is as good as it gets. Don’t be put off by the time taken to make these pies. The end result is well worth it.

1

Turn oven to 150°C.

2

To make the korma paste, combine cashews, ginger, garlic, chilli and coconut in a food processor until finely chopped.

Add oil, tomato paste, coriander and spices. Process until you have a smooth paste. Add a small amount of water if the processor is struggling to process it.

Season the beef with salt and pepper.

Using half the oil, heat in a large ovenproof casserole dish or crock pot over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches and remove

6

Add the remaining oil and saute the onions until soft, then add the korma paste and cook for a further 5 minutes. Keep stirring occasionally to ensure it does not stick.
