Trini Curry Beef

This Trini Curry Beef recipe is close to what you would typically find in some roti shops in Trinidad & Tobago. But instead of doing the low and slow method, this recipe uses a pressure cooker to get the beef nice and tender then finishes it off with the curry part.

The final outcome is a tender and flavorful curry beef that goes great with roti or rice. If you aren’t into beef you can definitely apply this same recipe to goat for the same great results!
