Today in Indonesia, especially in Aceh, there is a tradition of megan, what is megan? Megan is a tradition of eating meat before the fasting month of Ramadhan 1445 Hijri, which is done for 2 days and every megan day all the people of Aceh will buy meat to eat with their families at home, just like my family, in the morning we went to the market to buy 2 kilo grams of beef that will be cooked on this megan day, and I also bought beef ribs and the plan is that I will cook beef bone soup, of course I will also share the beef bone recipe with you later. Hehehe

Well, here I will first share the beef rendang recipe with all of you, especially for the beef rendang lovers, then tomorrow I will share the delicious and sweet beef bone soup recipe.




Materials used

1 kg of beef
1 kg of coconut milk
100 grams of red chili
50 grams of dry red chili
200 grams of red onion
5 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp palm sugar
1 tbsp tamarind
A few bay leaves
2 stalks of lemongrass
2 thumbs galangal
1 leaf stalk of orange belly.


Method of manufacture



First


Cut all the fine spices, such as chili, onion, galangal, and lemongrass into small pieces, so that they fit in the blender, for the lemongrass, don't blend all of them, leave 1 stick to be sauteed with slices of red onion and leaves later.then blend the spices until smooth, then mix them into the meat,and coconut milk, I already salted and limed the meat before.

Third


after the bay leaves, lemongrass and shallots have wilted, then add the meat that has been coated with fine spices and coconut milk, and also add the tamarind and palm sugar and cook until the meat is tender

Fourth


after the gravy has reduced a little, add chopped orange leaves, then cook again until the gravy dries up, it does take a long time to cook until the meat is tender. I cook for about 1 hour.

I cook the rendang not too dry, yes, I like the rendang a bit wet like this,

Tara..
My style beef rendang is ready, friends, yes, I didn't add salt to the rendang, the problem is that I already marinated the meat with salt and lime first, and if I add more salt while cooking, I'm afraid it will be salty. But Alhamdulillah this is very suitable, not salty and not bland, the spices are also very tasty

It tastes like the usual rendang taste, which is spicy, savory and rich in spices, eaten directly with warm rice, it's very good, and kapi also immediately takes the warm rice and immediately enjoys it with the family at home.

This is how I cook beef rendang, friends, the cooking process takes a long time, up to 1 hour or even more, but by the time we eat it, less than an hour is over heheh..

looks similar to yours ;)

yes, I've read your recipe, it's almost similar. but it seems that your recipe tastes even better. because you add cashew nuts and cardamom and turmeric spice again, the spice must taste really good.🙂

Ummmm this looks delicious, I would love to try it.

Thank you and you can try it🙂

The meal looks so delicious 😋

Thank you

The dish looks mouthwatering! Amazing!
