Simple tips you can do when cooking rendang:
- Use pure coconut milk from the coconut milk, not from instant coconut milk because coconut milk is very influential on the results of cooking because the oil from dried coconut milk will affect the taste savory and rendang typical pleasures.
- Always use fresh meat. And do not cut it in the direction of the tendon because the meat will be hard to tender. Cut meat with a square shape across or across the direction of the veins. So that the meat is not easily destroyed, then you can cut it with a rather large size.
- So that meat is not vulnerable to destroy, you can lift the meat after cooked and separate with the marinade. Once the marinade has been slightly dried, then you can mix it again.
