Heat oil in a pressure cooker. Add the peppercorns and fenugreek seeds and saute for a couple of minutes.

Add the onions and cook till transparent.

Then add the tomatoes and the pastes and cook till slighly mashed.

Add in 3/4 of the spice powders and salt and cook till the raw smell is gone.

Now add the beef and mix till the masala is well coated.

Close the lid of the pressure cooker and cook till the beef is done - the cooking time depends on the beef.

Open the pressure cooker and keep the masala on high flame for the liquid to dry up. Add in the remaining spice powders, adjust seasoning, and toss well. Dry the masala till it gets all coated on the beef.

Now for tempering, heat a frying pan and pour in the coconut oil. Once it becomes hot, splutter the mustard seeds.

Add the coconut bites and shallots and fry till well done.

Add the curry leaves and dried chillies and saute for a couple of minutes.

Put into your roast and mix well. Enjoy the aroma first and then devour!!! :)
