- 2 servings cooked white rice
Instructions
- 1Brown the minced meat

Add a dollop of minced meat into a hot pan with oil and stir-fry until the meat is thoroughly browned and fragrant.
Tip: Ensure the pan is hot before adding the meat to get a good sear. - 2Sauté the aromatics

Add the chopped red onion and minced garlic to the pan with the browned meat. Stir-fry the mixture until the onions are softened and the garlic is fragrant.
Tip: Keep stirring so the garlic does not burn. - 3Season the mixture

Add a spoonful of chili powder, a splash of light soy sauce, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt to the pan. Stir everything well to combine the spices and seasonings with the meat.
Tip: Adjust the amount of chili powder based on your spice preference. - 4Add milk

Pour 100ml of pure milk into the pan with the seasoned meat mixture, which will create the creamy base for the curry.
Tip: Pour the milk slowly to ensure it integrates well with the meat. - 5Incorporate curry roux

Add a block of curry roux to the pan. Stir the mixture constantly until the curry roux has completely melted and blended into the sauce.
Tip: Using a spatula helps break up the roux block faster. - 6Thicken the curry

Continue to stir the mixture until the curry sauce reaches your desired thickness and consistency.
Tip: Stirring prevents the sauce from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
