Beef Serunding

June 7, 2011 By Delia

Serunding or spicy shredded beef is a great appetizer, rice topping or addition to porridge. You can even store it in the fridge because the older it gets marinated, the tastier it becomes; a day or two will do.

 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

500g top side beef

3 cups water

10 dried chilies

3 stalks lemon grass (soft parts only)

1/2 inch fresh ginger root, peeled and sliced

1/2 inch fresh turmeric root, peeled and sliced or 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

10 shallots, peeled

1 1/4 cups thick coconut milk

1 1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons tamarind juice

 

Slice the beef into large cubes and place it in a large pot of water under high heat. Bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat. Let it simmer for 1 hour until the meat is tender. After, drain and set aside. Reserve the stock. Once the beef is cool, shred it and place them on a plate.

Soak the chili in warm water for 10 minutes or until soft. Drain. Slice and remove the seeds. Place the chili, lemongrass, turmeric, ginger and shallots in a blender or food processor. Process it for 1 minute, while gradually adding some reserved beef stock. Continue to grind the ingredients until smooth, to form a paste.

Pour the coconut milk into a large saucepan under medium heat. Add the paste mixture and stir. Bring it to a boil. Add the shredded beef and cook it for another 30 minutes. Stir frequently. Add the tamarind juice and cook it for 20-30 minutes until the beef becomes dry and crisp. Serve immediately with rice and vegetables or store it in an air-tight container.
