For an easy, dry-style curry inspired by those of southern India, we bloom whole spices in oil, then toss in a ready-made spice blend. Fresh ginger adds warm, punchy heat, while scallions contribute bright allium notes. To finish, thinly sliced beef is cooked quickly in the fragrant, flavor-packed oil and combined with toasty wide-flaked coconut. Serve over a bowl of steamed basmati rice and garnish as you like; we love this topped with a handful of fresh herbs and yogurt.
