You can use chicken thighs or beef, for this is took a couple pounds of chuck roast and cubed it. I also tried out a curry paste instead of going from scratch. The brand is Mae ploy.
And again my measurements are a bit odd.
Ingredients:
Cubed beef roughly 2 lbs
Mae ploy massaman curry paste about a cup.
Lightly roasted peanuts about a cup or so,
Oyster sauce 3 large glugs
Fish sauce a large pull
A pat of tamarind paste about the size of matchbook.
A hand full of kafir lime leaves
Palm sugar/brown sugar a small palmfull
2 cans of coconut milk
Chicken stock
3-4 rough cubed potatoes
2 small onions
Brown the beef in a pan and set aside.
Separate the coconut milk solids or fat off the top of the coconut milk and heat it in a large pot, add the curry paste, stirring constantly until the curry paste starts to come together and dissolve adding more coconut fat/or milk if necessary, break up the tamarind paste with the back of a spoon into the paste/milk mixture. Don’t sweat it if it doesn’t dissolve the whole way yet. Throw the onions in the pot and let them soften slowly adding fish sauce, Oyster sauce, the sugar and the rest of the coconut milk.
Next Add about 3-4 cans of chicken stock, I used a bullion powder so I’m just guessing here. Next throw in potatoes, beef, and lime leaves. bring it to a simmer while you lightly toast some peanuts in a separate pan and throw those in.
I cooked it low and slow for about an hr or so or just until all the flavors came together and the beef softened.
Serve it over rice with lime wedges, Cilantro, and crushed peanuts.
Let me know if you want me to clarify anything and enjoy!
Anyone have a good recipe for this?
I can give you my recipe! Fair warning, measurements are kind of eyeballed but give me a few and I’ll type it up for you!
