Beef and Yoghurt

==Description==
A dry curry. A good, solid red wine or a cold beer would be good with this dish.
==Ingredients==
* 500 g steak, cut into bite-sized pieces 
* 1½ teaspoons salt 
* 1¼ cups natural yoghurt 
* 60 g ghee, butter, or margarine 
* 2 large onions, finely sliced 
* 3 dessertspoons grated fresh ginger 
* 4 cloves garlic, crushed 
* 2 teaspoons ground coriander 
* 1 teaspoon garam masala 
* ½ teaspoon chilli powder
* 2 teaspoons ground paprika 
* ½ teaspoon ground cumin 
* 2 teaspoons turmeric 
==Directions==
# Put the meat into a bowl and sprinkle it with the salt; rub it in well.
# Pour the yoghurt over the meat, cover it, and let it marinate for 24 hours, stirring it occasionally.
# Heat the ghee in a heavy pan and gently fry the onions, garlic and ginger until tender and golden.
# Add the other spices, stir, and cook gently for about 10 minutes until well mixed and cooked.
# Add the meat and yoghurt mixture, mix everything well, and cook gently for about 1½ hours, or until the meat is tender.
# If it is too moist for your liking, leave it uncovered for some of the cooking time.
# I serve this with plain, boiled rice as there are enough spices in the meat mixture to flavour the rice.
# Pickled limes, served as a sambal, add a delicious piquancy to this dish.
