Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C) and roast the peanuts on a tray for about 5 minutes, until golden; roughly chop them once cool enough to handle. Turn the oven down to 180°C (fan 160°C).
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of the coconut cream in a large lidded casserole. Add the curry paste and fry for a minute, then stir in the beef until well coated and sealed. Add the remaining coconut cream with half a can of water, along with the potatoes, onion, lime leaves, cinnamon, tamarind, sugar, fish sauce, and most of the peanuts. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook in the oven for 2 hours, until the beef is tender.
  3. Scatter over the sliced chilli and the remaining peanuts, and serve straight from the dish with jasmine rice.
