Method

  1. 01

    Make the aromatic paste

    Blend the red chilies, red bell pepper, shallots, ginger, galangal, and two lemongrass stalks with the water to make a paste. If needed, scrape down the sides of the blender and blend again.

    Ready to continue when: The mixture is evenly blended, with no large pieces visible.

  2. 02

    Cook the paste and spices

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot. Add the aromatic paste and cook, stirring, until its liquid has evaporated. Add the cloves, star anise, and cinnamon sticks, and stir to distribute them.

    Ready to continue when: The paste has no visible liquid and gives off a strong aroma; the whole spices are distributed through it.

  3. 03

    Slow-cook the beef

    Add the beef and stir to coat it with the paste. Add the coconut milk, kaffir lime leaves, the remaining two bruised lemongrass stalks, palm sugar, tamarind paste, and salt. Mix, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook over low heat. Stir occasionally at first and frequently as the liquid reduces, until the beef is tender and very little liquid remains.

    Ready to continue when: The beef is tender and the mixture has reduced almost completely, with a dark color and no abundant liquid sauce.

    Toast the coconut and finish

    While the stew cooks, toast the grated coconut in a separate pan. Once it has taken on a toasted color, add it to the pot and stir it in before serving.

    Ready to continue when: The coconut is toasted but not burned, and it is mixed into the stew.
