Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Blend the onions, garlic, ginger and chillies with the pepper, chilli powder, coriander, fennel seeds, a teaspoon of salt and lemon juice.

  2. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the beef until browned on all sides. Add the paste and fry for a few minutes until fragrant, add the tomato purée and coat the beef.

  3. Splash in a little of the stock into the pan to deglaze it, scraping the bits off the bottom, then add the tinned tomatoes and the rest of the stock. Cover the pan and simmer as gently as possible for 90 minutes, until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened.

  4. Dust the leek strips in cornflour and flash fry for a minute in a generous glug of vegetable oil. Drain on kitchen towel and sprinkle with a little salt.

  5. Serve the madras in bowls with a dollop of yoghurt and garnished with a sprinkle of crispy leeks.
