Nadan Beef Ularthu (Spicy Beef Fry/Roast Kerala Toddy Shop Style) is a tasty and spicy traditional recipe from Kerala, South India. It is an indispensable dish for Keralites/Malayalees especially Kerala Christians. The Malayalam word “Ularthu” means “stir fry” or “roast”. It is a stir fry or slow roast of beef with a variety of Indian spices, coconut oil, coconut slices and plenty of curry leaves.
