Beef Chili Dry

On a table full of oriental delicacies a dish that stands out on its own is ‘Beef Chili Dry’. It looks hot and scrumptious. It is juicy and full of hot flavors. Couple this with a hot serving of vegetable (or egg) fried rice and you have one of the world’s best meal in front of you, especially if you are a beef lover!

There are a lot of variations in Beef Chili Dry recipe. To keep is healthier, I did not fry it the way it is done conventionally. I cooked it in a little bit of sauce to keep the calorie count low.

I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think.

I am trained to be an IT professional. I served National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) for six years after graduating from the same university. I love cooking and wanted to be a chef at one point in my life. As long as I can remember, cooking good food has been my passion and it makes me happy.
My cooking lessons were a bit unusual though. Back in the day when digital did not mean much, my father would record cooking shows (knorr ka kitchen, kaukab khuwaja and Zee Khana Khazana – Chef Sanjeev Kapoor) for me that I would watch endless times later on, before trying the recipes out. I would make brownies and cold cake almost every day while my mother was asleep. This was my way of surprising her every evening. My mother cooks amazing food too and I have tried many of the recipes that she has written in her recipe book.
I draw inspiration from a number of chefs from televised cooking shows such as Late Chef Farah, Chef Rahat, Chef Mehboob, BBC Food, Masala TV, Chef Shai, Chef Sharmeen, Master Chef Australia and my ultimate favorite Chef Shireen Anwer. I would not be as good a cook that I am without passive guidance from each one of these.
