beef rendang - PLEASE PICK A FINISHING MOVE
DIRECTIONS
1. Heat the coconut in a dry wok, stirring continuously until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
2. Using a blender or a food processor, blend the shallots, garlic, chilies, ginger, and lemon grass to a thick paste.
3. Grind the coriander, fennel, cumin and nutmeg.
4. Using the wok, fry the shallot paste in a little oil for a few minutes. Add the ground coriander, fennel, cumin and nutmeg; cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring continuously. Add beef; cook over a medium heat for a further 3 to 4 minutes, or until meat is browned.
5. Stir in sugar, coconut, cloves, cinnamon stick, coconut milk , and water. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer until most of the liquid has gone and the meat is tender (about 1 hour). Season with salt to taste.
===================================================
Add the final group of ingredients (except candle nuts). Bring to boil then simmer for about 2 hours. Stir regularly (every 20 mins or so) as the sauce tends to be thick and dry.
With half and hour to go, check sauce thickness. The sauce should be a thick sauce when finished. Add candle nuts to thicken and then leave with lid off to reduce the liquid levels and make the sauce a thick pasty consistency (stir more frequently to stop sticking).
This dish improves with age so I usually cook it the day before I want to eat it and then reheat. Cuts down workload if you are cooking several dishes.
===================================================
1. Mix beef, pounded ingredients, curry powder, turmeric powder, lemon grass, chilli paste, water, cinnamon stick, star anise, in a deep cooking pan.
2. Cover and cook for 30 min or till beef tender.
3. Add tamarind juice, coconut milk, kaffir lime leaves, coconut paste, salt and paper to taste and cook for 15 min or till sauce thick.
4. Serve hot over white rice, white bread or glutinous rice.
===================================================
* Simmer coconut milk with turmeric leaf, kaffir lime leaves, lemon grass, asam gelugur, sliced chilies and ground spices until the milk thickens and becomes oily.
* Reduce heat.
* Add beef and cook until tender.
* Stir occasionally until the spices dry and turn brown. -

some things taste better overnight, like curry and rendang.
because it gets thicker, the ingredients soak up the gravy. -
Now watching thai teenagie show.
About a old man who pics up rubbish. Found a baby in the dustbin and brought him up.
The boy was always bullied and even some teenagers bully that old man.
Anyway, its story about how the teenager and his father suffered and eventually the teenager finally grew up to be a doctor story.
Now is a scene where the teenager classmate is telling the old man off about something. THink its the old man runs away from home after something the teenager says.
So now the teenager is now looking for his foster father.
Kinda strange to see grown man acts as a teenager.
