Spiced Sri Lankan Sautéed Beef Salad

Assemble the ingredients: beef, lemon juice, flour, turmeric, cinnamon, tomato, potato.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the beef and cook until sautéed.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Sri Lankan flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Sri Lankan accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
