- Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat.
- Stir in the Greek yogurt until well combined.
- Sprinkle the chopped cashews on top as a garnish.

Tips:
- Cut the beef into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Sauté the onions and garlic until they are fragrant to add depth to the curry.
- For a richer flavor, marinate the beef in the curry paste for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Be sure not to overcook the green beans and spinach; they should remain slightly crisp.
- Add the Greek yogurt towards the end of the cooking process to prevent it from curdling.
- Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and extra cashews for an added touch of flavor and texture.
