Beef Mappas is a very tempting and traditional curry prepared in Kerala during Christmas and Easter day. This is a spicy curry prepared in coconut milk, a stew like curry and tastes delicious any time of the day. This curry is served for breakfast, lunch and dinner. At home, we prefer this curry best to be served with Appam for breakfast. You can prepare this curry with chicken and mutton too. Enjoy your food with love :)
