Directions

Step 1

Start by slicing the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1-inch wide, ensuring that the slices are of even thickness for uniform cooking.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the beef slices and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes or until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of cooking oil. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the gluten-free red curry paste to the skillet and stir for about 1 minute to release the aromas.

Step 5

Pour in the coconut milk and water, stirring to combine with the curry paste. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 6

Add the fish sauce, brown sugar, and gluten-free soy sauce, continuing to stir for another 2 minutes.

Step 7

Return the beef to the skillet, followed by the sliced red and green bell peppers and sliced onion. Stir well to combine.

Step 8

Simmer the curry over medium heat for about 10-12 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the beef is fully cooked.

Step 9

Stir in the lime juice and basil leaves, and let them cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 10

Check the seasoning and adjust with more fish sauce or sugar if needed.

Step 11

Once satisfied with the taste, remove the curry from the heat. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 12

Serve the gluten-free beef Thai curry hot, with steamed jasmine rice or gluten-free rice noodles as per preference.
