Critical Success Points

  • Mixing the beef with spices before pressure cooking ensures even flavor penetration.
  • Cooking the beef to the correct pressure (first whistle + 3‑4 whistles) is essential for tenderness.
  • Browning the shallots to a golden color develops the base flavor.
  • Sautéing ground spices on low heat prevents bitterness.
  • Do not boil after adding coconut milk; it should be incorporated off the heat.

Safety Warnings

  • Pressure cooker releases hot steam – open the valve carefully.
  • Hot oil can splatter; keep a safe distance while sautéing.
  • Do not boil after adding coconut milk to avoid curdling.
