How To Make Beef Massaman Curry Recipes

BEEF MASSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, then roast the peanuts on a baking tray for 5 mins until golden brown. When cool enough to handle, roughly chop. Reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Heat 2 tbsp coconut milk (use the cream on top if there is any) in a large casserole dish with a lid. Add the curry paste and fry for 1 min, then stir in the beef and fry until well coated and sealed.
• Stir in the rest of the coconut with half a can of water, the potatoes, onion, lime leaves, cinnamon, tamarind, sugar, fish sauce and most of the peanuts. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 2 hrs in the oven until the beef is tender.
• Sprinkle with sliced chilli and the remaining peanuts, then serve straight from the dish with jasmine rice.

HOW TO MAKE BEEF MASSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• Place the beef in a saucepan and pour 500ml (2 cups) of water over it. Bring to a simmer and cook for 11⁄2-2 hours until the meat is really tender. You will probably need to add more water but only add just enough to cover. You want the stock to be really flavourful from the beef.
• When the meat is almost tender enough to eat, stir in the potatoes and cook until fork tender.
• While the meat is cooking, you can start making the curry. Ina wok or large frying pan, heat the oil over a medium-high heat. When it begins to shimmer, add the onion and peanuts. Fry for about 3 minutes, then add the curry paste. Stir well to combine with the oil and onions.
• Now add the coconut milk, sugar and tamarind paste, followed by the beef, potatoes, about 250ml (1 cup) of the cooking liquid and the fish sauce. Simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding salt to taste. Garnish with a few leaves of holy basil and serve.
