Ingredients

1 (4 pound) boneless beef chuck roast
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (1 inch) piece ginger, crushed
3 dried red chilies, broken
3 whole black peppercorns, coarsely crushed
3 whole cloves
1 (1 inch) piece cinnamon stick
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
salt to taste
3 cups water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 onions, sliced
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons tomato puree
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

1

Place chuck roast, garlic, ginger, chilies, peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon stick, cumin, coriander, salt, and water in a slow cooker. Cook on High until roast is tender, 4 to 6 hours.
2

Remove roast and let cool enough to handle; cut into thick slices. Strain liquid from slow cooker, discarding spices, and reserving liquid.
3

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4

Heat oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion until brown and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle chili powder over onions and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes, ketchup, tomato puree, black pepper, and reserved liquid from slow cooker; cook until reduced to 3 cups, about 10 minutes. Place sliced meat into skillet and simmer until sauce thickens, 5 to 10 minutes.
5

Bake in preheated oven, basting occasionally with sauce, until browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve garnished with chopped cilantro.
