Ingredients:
1-2 kg stewing beef, cut into 1" chunks
extra garlic, sambal olek, soy sauce & oil

4-6 cloves garlic (fresh)
1 medium onion or a bunch of shallots
2" piece of fresh ginger, skinned
2 teasp cumin powder
1 teasp turmeric powder
2 teasp coriander powder
3-4 tablesp sambal olek (Indonesian Chili Sauce)
salt to taste or soy sauce

1 cupful of coconut milk or paste
1-2 teasp tamarind paste
1 tbsp sugar
juice of 1/2 lemon
2-3 mashed kemiri/candle nuts
oil for frying

preparation:
Rub the beef with mashed garlic, soy sauce, Sambal Olek & oil. Let marinate for a few hours in the fridge. Make a paste (in a blender) of everything in the second group of ingredients (garlic ... soy sauce). Modify the spices according to taste. however you must use a lot of the chili paste as this is the central ingredient for the sauce. Heat oil in pan. Add the beef & sear until brown (approximately five minutes). Add the spice paste. Cook on high heat for about few mins. Add the final group of ingredients (except candle nuts). Remove to boil then simmer for about two hrs. Stir regularly every 20 minutes as the sauce tends to be thick & dry. The sauce should be a thick sauce when finished. Add candle nuts to thicken then leave with lid off to reduce the liquid levels & make the sauce a thick pasty consistency. Beef Rendang Recipe improves with age so try to cook it the day before you want to eat it. Have a nice day!
