Daging Rendang Kunyit (Beef Rendang)

Today's menu is Nasi Lemak served with Beef Rendang, Roast Chicken & vegetables. I tried to come home little earlier than usual since making rendang & roast chicken are time consuming but unfortunately we had a black-out. Imagine without electricity, everything are manual.... pounding the rendang ingredients in stone mortar, cooking Nasi Lemak on a stove instead of using rice cooker.... but how about roast chicken without an oven? Fortunately, the electricity was backed 1/2 hour before Iftar time & was ready 10 minutes late after breaking-off fast.

So here is my delicious rendang recipe....

INGREDIENTS:
500g Beef - sliced 
15 Shallots*
2 cloves Garlic*
1.5" Ginger*
1" Galangal*  (* blended)
1 bowl Chili Paste
1 tbsp Turmeric Powder
1 bowl Thick Coconut Milk
2 Turmeric leaves - sliced finely
1 tsp Sugar & Salt

METHOD:
1.  Method 1: Place all ingredients in a wok & stir until thick.

2. Method 2 (the one I used today, which is a faster method): Pressure cook the beef until tender.
Heat up some oil & fry the remaining ingredients, except coconut milk, until fragrant.
Add in coconut milk & cook until thick.
Add in beef & cook until thick to the preferred consistency.
