    Beef Rendang

    I snagged this from: Beef Massaman Curry Recipe | Rasa Malaysia: Asian Recipes and Cooking
    rendang-recipe-rendang-daging/

    I have never cut and pasted a recipe before as I usually
    just look at recipes for inspiration. I do the same when
    I'm making a rendang, but wanted to post the 'proper' way
    in case anyone happened to have all the ingredients.

    I really enjoy this dish, it has a very regal 'special occasion' type of feel to it.

    you can find fresh galangal at a 'whole foods market'
    usually. The aroma is simply mystifying.

    enjoy!

    Recipe: Beef Rendang (Rendang Daging) or Spicy Beef
    Stew with Coconut
    Ingredients:

    1 1/2 pound boneless beef short ribs (cut into cubes)
    5 tablespoons cooking oil
    1 cinnamon stick (about 2-inch long)
    3 cloves
    3 star anise
    3 cardamom pods
    1 lemongrass (cut into 4-inch length and pounded)
    1 cup thick coconut milk
    1 cup water
    2 teaspoons tamarind pulp (soaked in some warm water
    for the juice and discard the seeds )
    6 kaffir lime leaves (very finely sliced)
    6 tablespoons kerisik (toasted coconut)
    1 tablespoon sugar/palm sugar or to taste
    Salt to taste

    Spice Paste:

    5 shallots
    1 inch galangal
    3 lemongrass (white part only)
    5 cloves garlic
    1 inch ginger
    10-12 dried chilies (soaked in warm water and seeded)

    Method:

    Chop the spice paste ingredients and then blend it in a food
    processor until fine.
    Heat the oil in a stew pot, add the spice paste, cinnamon,
    cloves, star anise, and cardamom and stir-fry them until
    aromatic.
    Add the beef and the pounded lemongrass and stir for 1
    minute.
    Add the coconut milk, tamarind juice, water, and simmer
    on medium heat, stirring frequently until the meat is
    almost cooked.
    Add the kaffir lime leaves, kerisik (toasted coconut),
    sugar/palm sugar, stirring to blend well with the meat.
    Lower the heat to low, cover the lid, and simmer for 1 - 1
    1/2 hours or until the meat is really tender and the gravy
    has dried up.
    Add salt to taste. If not sweet enough, add more sugar to
    taste.
    Serve immediately with steamed rice and save some for
    overnight.

    I'm not sure why the have you slice up the kafir lime leaves. I leave them whole as they are much easier to fish out later.

          I made this dish, though a different version, a couple of weeks ago and it was a MAJOR hit. We loved, loved, loved it! I made coconut rice to go with it.
          I'm really easy to get along with once people learn to worship me

            Oh I LOVE rendang. My friends MIL here is Malay and I quite often get invited over to sample her cooking, how lucky am I?

            I'm not so lucky when the apartment downstairs are cooking up a batch of Sambal - it stinks!

            Nice Recipe Det.
