5. Once the mix is cooked add in 32 ounces of beef broth to it and let it simmer. Add the beef back in and cook it at 350 F for about 3 hours in the oven. Make sure to stir every 30 mins. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
6. Making the green chutney sauce - In a blender take 1 cup yogurt, 1 bunch of cilantro and mint, 1 tsp cumin powder, 3 clove garlic ,½ lime juice , 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp salt and lastly our favorite Thai chili pepper. Blend everything well into a sauce.
