<p>While watching a Malayalam Cookery Show, I came across an interesting recipe by a Chef from Kottayam. It was the recipe for <strong>Kerala Style Beef Fry</strong> which was quite different from the regular <a href="http://recipes.malayali.me/non-veg/kerala-beef-fry-erachi-ulathiyathu"><strong>Beef Ulathiyathu</strong></a>. I decided to try the same recipe with <strong>Pork </strong>and it turned out really well. You can use Beef or Pork for this recipe but the meat needs to be sliced into thin strips. The Meat is first marinated and shallow fried in oil and then sauteed with onions and other ingredients. The Pork strips which were shallow fried in oil looked and tasted exactly like fish. The <strong>Fried Meat Strips</strong> itself make a great dish and when sauteed with onions and other ingredients, it tastes out of this world.</p>

<p>This<strong> Spicy Meat Fry (Irachi Varuthathu)</strong> can be prepared quickly when compared to the regular Beef/Pork Olarthiyahtu. This is a wonderful recipe and is an excellent appetizer with drinks.</p>
<p><span><strong>Ingredients</strong></span></p>
<ol><li>Thinly Sliced Beef or Pork Strips – 250 grams (The strips can be of any size suitable for frying)</li>

<li>Dried Red Chillies – 4 to 6</li>

<li>Marinate the meat with all the above ingredients and keep it aside for 10 minutes.</li>
<li>Meanwhile heat oil in a non stick frying pan and shallow fry the meat until browned on both sides. You need to fry each side for atleast 5 minutes so that it browns well. Remove the strips and drain onto paper towels.</li>
<li>To the same oil, add onions/shallots, green chillies, ginger, garlic and curry leaves and saute until the onions begin to brown.</li>
<li>Reduce heat and add red chilly powder, meat masala powder, garam masala powder, pepper powder and coriander powder. Saute for 2 minutes.</li>
