1 med. can coconut milk
1 pt. beef stock
1 lg. onion, chopped fine
2 cloves garlic, minced fine
2 1/2 tbsp. curry powder
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. ground turmeric
1 tsp. ground cumin
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. coriander
1 tsp. cardamom
2 lbs. lean steak
Juice of 1 lemon
2 bay leaves
1 sm. can mandarin oranges
3/4 c. raisins

Cut steak into thin 1/4" slices, brown quickly in small amount of olive or vegetable oil. Remove steak, add onions. Cook in oil until transparent. Add spices, raisins, coconut, milk, beef stock, lemon juice and bay leaves and steak and simmer slowly 45 minutes or until meat is tender. Place in refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours so that the meat will absorb the flavor of the spices.

Heat until boiling, add thickening (cornstarch mixed with a little water), bring to a boil, add mandarin oranges. Serve over freshly boiled rice. Add a pinch of saffron to the rice while the water is boiling.
