I finally manage to make Beef Rendang, an Indonesian dish that is not easy to make. Actually, it wasn't so difficult to make but it is time consuming. It took me 3-4 hours to cook Rendang. The thing is with delicious food is that is always takes very long to prepare it. Making beef rendang also means you will need Daun Kemangi as an ingredient. An ingredient that is very difficult to get here in Holland. It's not impossible to get it here, but you have to be lucky if an Asian grocery shop sells it.
The thing is with rendang, it should be looking dry, almost like beef jerky. There are however people who make beef rendang wet and people who make beef rendang dry. It's just what your preference is.
Ingredients
1 kg beef
3 medium onions or 2 large onions
100 gram lombok chillies
2 pieces of fresh ginger
2 pieces of fresh galangal
500 ml coconut cream
5 cloves of garlic
4 fresh lemon leaves
1 fresh lemon grass
2 Kemangi leaves
Instructions
Chop onions, garlic, ginger, galangal and lombok chillies ( with a food processor).
Cut beef in slices or square pieces.
Take a large pan and fry with a few tablespoon of oil all ingredients except the beef.
After 15 minutes add the beef pieces and wait..... wait very looooooong.....
After 30 minutes....
After 2 hours....
After 3 hours....
After 4 hours!
I cooked the beef rendang on low heat otherwise it will burn.
I am happy with the result and the taste. I usually don't like coconut cream in my dinner, but this rendang tasted very good! Few things I would like to add are: more chillies and 1 more lemon grass.

Rendang....... Oh rendang. I like it very much.
Wah.. Cepat kali kak.. He he he, disini masih menanti beberapa hari lagi makan daging rendangnya.
Iya, baru belajar bikin daging rendang.Tapi enak rasanya :-)
So pasti enak itu kak, santapan nusantara :D
Orang Indonesia bangga banget punya masakan rendang yang rasanya juara! Masak rendang memang perlu kesabaran ekstra, tapi hasilnya sangat worth it. Kalo saya, karena ngga makan daging sapi, biasanya bikin rendang daging bebek. Enak banget.
By the way, kalo dilihat dari foto, daun kemangi yang @fathin-shihab maksud adalah daun kunyit deh 😊😊
hehehe, iya daun kunyit. salah nulis.... atau salah beli :-D.
It's looking delicious
