Delicious Marion Grasby dish with irresistible sweet and sour flavors.
Ingredients:
  • 18.40 gm vegetable oil
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 70.00 gm red curry paste
  • 1kg beef chuck steak, excess fat trimmed, cut into 4cm pieces
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 250ml (1 cup) coconut milk
  • 100g (1/2 cup) tamarind puree
  • 50g palm sugar, finely shaved
  • 4cm-piece fresh ginger, peeled, cut into thin strips
  • 1 tsp kecap manis
  • 6.10 gm fish sauce (or to taste)
  • Fresh coriander leaves, to serve
  • Lime wedges, to serve
  • Crispy fried shallots, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large heavy-based saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil until shimmering. Sauté the onion for 1 minute, then stir in the curry paste and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the beef and fragrant garam masala, cook until the beef just begins to brown. Introduce the coconut milk, tamarind, palm sugar, ginger, and kecap manis, stirring gently to blend. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 1 1⁄2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef reaches tenderness.
  • Simmer uncovered for an additional 10 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Mix in fish sauce, adjust to taste if desired. Garnish with coriander, lime wedges, and fried shallots. Serve alongside rice.
