Instead of just reheating, you make dish variations with things lying around in your pantry.

South Indians need some form of gravy to go with all the time and I take most dishes and make them into curries by adding just cream or coconut milk. This one is an example of that.

Recipe Tips

The cream gives the leftover Non Veg Stew its thickness. You can also use thick coconut milk instead. If you use coconut milk, mix it in after the beef gravy is added.

You can also use garam masala instead of fennel powder, which imparts an intense flavor to the dish. Use fennel powder and garam masala together, but be careful with proportions.

Use the salt sparingly. Taste and add as needed.

Beef bouillon is optional; it is used to add beef flavor. If you have enough beef gravy, you can skip the bouillon.

Overheating the curry may cause it to curdle. If you've added cream or coconut milk, simmer it instead of boiling it.
