Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

85g unsalted peanuts
400ml can coconut milk
4 tbsp massaman curry paste (we used Bart)
600g stewing beef steak, cut into large chunks
450g waxy potatoes, cut into 2.5cm chunks
1 onion, cut into thin wedges
4 kaffir lime leaves (available from Thai shops or dried from supermarkets)
1 cinnamon stick
1 tbsp tamarind paste
1 tbsp palm or soft light brown sugar
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced, to serve
jasmine rice, to serve

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.

INSTANT POT® MASSAMAN BEEF CURRY



Instant Pot® Massaman Beef Curry image

This dinner combines the comfort of beef stew with the vibrancy of Thai flavors, so consider it a quick (thanks to your Instant Pot®) and satisfying alternative to take-out. Massaman curry is a traditional Thai dish with Indian roots-the warming spices found in it are drawn from Indian culinary tradition. While the characteristic spiciness of Thai food is toned way down in this dish, the finishing touches of herbs and citrus make it feel right at home in Southeast Asia. This version definitely delivers on those trademark flavors but does so with a streamlined ingredient list, so you don't need to buy any special ingredients. Serve it up on a bed of rice, topped with a combo of fresh and crunchy toppings, and you've got a dish that's fit for company but still easy enough for a weeknight.

THAI BEEF MASSAMAN CURRY



Thai Beef Massaman Curry image

This recipe is from Brigitte Hafner. When I made it I found I had to add quite a bit of water in the last 15 minutes to stop it getting too dry, just keep an eye on it and stir frequently. I used rump steak as that was all I had, but I marinaded it for 24 hours in a tenderising marinade and it was absolutely amazing. I made this in a nonstick wok so you may like to use more oil if you don't have one of these. Also, I used pre-cooked potatoes to make it a little faster and just reheated them in the curry (but they would taste nicer cooked in).

Time 1h45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

600 g beef (brisket, gravy beef, or shank)
cooking spray
1 large onion, sliced
salt
400 g coconut milk, settled- don't shake
6 tablespoons massaman curry paste (bought or made)
500 ml water
2 cinnamon sticks
2 bay leaves
3 waxy potatoes, peeled and diced in 2-3cm cubes
1 -2 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon grated palm sugar
1 tablespoon tamarind paste or 1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons roasted peanuts, crushed
3 sprigs coriander, chopped

Steps:

  • Trim meat of excess fat and sinew and cut into 2-3cm cubes.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot and fry the onion until brown.
  • Add the meat, season and continue to brown all over.
  • From top of the coconut milk tin, scoop out the thick cream and add to the pot.
  • Add curry paste, lower the heat and cook gently for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the water, remaining coconut milk, cinnamon and bay leaves and simmer, covered, for 1 hour.
  • Add the potatoes and cook for another 30 min or until the meat and potatoes are tender. You may need to add a little water as the curry is cooking.
  • Season to taste with fish sauce, palm sugar (see TIP) and tamarind paste.
  • Garnish with peanuts and coriander and serve with steamed basmati or jasmine rice.
  • ---TIP---.
  • Shaving palm sugar can be a pain, especially when the sugar is a little dried out. I buy it in discs, so now I just pop a disc in a cup with a little water (about 1 T) and microwave it on high for 30 seconds. Stir, and you will find it dissolves. You can then add this liquid to your curry to taste.
