Beef rendang

 Beef rendang

1 kg of beef (preferably the head meat)
1 turmeric leaf
3 pieces of lime leaves
2 bay leaves
Coconut milk from 4 coconuts
3 tablespoons of salt
Ground spices:


100 gr red onion
100 gr garlic
150 grams of curly red chilies
1 knuckle of ginger
2 vertebrae of laos
3 lemongrass stalks
How to make typical Minang beef rendang:
1. Cut the meat into squares and mash the ground spices with a blender or a ground stone.

2. Prepare a frying pan, put all the ingredients and ground spices. Then cook all the ingredients over high heat until they boil, stirring frequently.

3. After boiling, reduce the heat to medium. Stir and cook until the coconut milk releases the oil.

4. After the coconut milk releases the oil, reduce the heat again. Then stir occasionally so that the rendang doesn't burn and cook until the rendang dries.

5. If you want dry rendang, it will take about eight hours to cook.
