Aziza's Beef Curry

24 oz lean Steak
1-1/2 tbsp Oil
1 med to lg Onion, sliced
5 tsp Curry Powder (at least)
1-1/2 cup Mushrooms, sliced
2 to 5 lg Garlic Cloves, minced
1 med Tomato, diced
2 tsp Sugar
2 tsp Salt
2 cups Water, boiling
2 tbsp Cornstarch
2 tbsp Water
1 pkg Noodles, cooked

Cut beef into 1" cubes. Sauté onion in oil over med heat until tender. Stir in curry powder, cook 1 minute. Add beef cubes, mushrooms, tomato, garlic, salt and sugar. Continue cooking until the beef cubes are lightly browned.

Boil the 2 cups of water. Add enough of the boiling water to barely cover the beef. Cover skillet and simmer gently about 1-1/2 hours, or until beef is extremely tender.

Mix together the cornstarch and 2 tbsp water. Stir into beef mixture. Simmer gently until thickened. Serve over cooked noodles.

This cooks up perfectly in the crockpot.Do the stove-top cooking part, put the contents of the skillet into the crockpot, add the water, cover and cook according to your manufacturer's directions for your slow-cooker.

Deb's note: Also good over rice or mashed potatoes. Or in tortillas. Even plain.
