Tshoem is the Bhutanese word for '
curry'. In this case it has the same meaning as the original Indian word, representing a thickened sauce or gravy which is not necessarily either hot or very heavily spiced.
Ingredients:
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
2cm piece of
ginger, peeled and grated
120g unsalted butter
450g stewing steak, cut into 2cm dice
120ml water
1 tsp salt
2 fresh green chillies, de-seeded and sliced into thin julienne strips
75g fresh
oyster mushrooms, stemmed and thicly sliced
freshly-ground black pepper
Method:
Melt the butter in a large pan and use to fry the beef and onion for 3 minutes then add the water and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, over low heat for about 100 minutes, or until the beef is just tender. Now add all the remaining ingredients (add a little more water if the mix is too dry) and cook until the mushrooms are tender and everything is heated through (about 10 minutes).
Serve hot on a bed of rice.
