: Coconut Beef Curry – Approx 300 calories

If you’re looking to cook up an Indian-like dish that isn’t too complex while still having all the flavors you enjoy, give Coconut Beef Curry a taste. You’ll need about 15 minutes to prep the ingredients and then another half hour of cooking time to wrap it up.

The creamy curry sauce sweetened by a touch of coconut milk nicely balances the tartness of the fresh pineapple while bringing out the flavor of the beef. Scoop a good-sized portion over white jasmine rice and you have yourself a fabulous asian creation that’ll hit the spot.
