Experience #6
The Ultimate Steak Curry
Yes, this is "The Ultimate" steak curry, and we are proud of it because, after years of trying to balance a genuinely delicious curry with a well-cooked, flavourful steak, we finally got there. At this point, you might wonder if this is a novel idea. As far as we can tell, it is a unique idea, well, purely based on Google searches.
We are not talking about a curry-flavoured sauce. This is a proper curry with a proper steak that can be served at any dinner party to impress your guests. More importantly, it's very easy to prepare. Once you put the curry on, you don't need to do much more than make a salad to go with it. We also have a fantastic cheesecake that is very easy to make.
We know there are several easy recipes for naan bread, but with this recipe, we wanted an authentic naan cooked in a tandoor oven, so we got it from our favourite Indian restaurant.

Wine Selection
White wines and beers are the usual suspects when pairing drinks with curries. However, for this particular curry, we set out to find a red wine that could complement the steak and enhance the flavours of the dish simultaneously.
Given that this curry isn't excessively spicy, we focused less on the wine's alcohol content and more on its fruitiness and spice profile. We chose a Malbec from Punta de Flechas, known for its juicy plum and blackberry notes. This wine beautifully complements the grilled steak, while its oak and spice undertones elevate the curry's spices.
