Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 150°C. Process the shallot, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, chilli and coriander in a food processor until finely chopped. Add 1 tbs water and process until a paste forms. Season with salt.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tsp of the oil in a heavy-based ovenproof pan over medium heat. Season the beef and cook, turning, for 5-7 mins or until browned all over. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Step 3

    Heat remaining oil in the pan over medium heat. Cook the shallot and chilli paste for 2-3 mins or until aromatic. Stir in the coconut milk, tamarind, sugar, cinnamon, star anise and coconut. Bring to the boil. Return the beef to the pan. Cover and bake, turning the beef twice during cooking, for 3 hours or until beef is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
  4. Step 4

    Remove the beef from the pan. Use two forks to shred the meat. Return the meat to the pan and stir to combine. Serve the beef rendang with extra chilli, extra coconut and coriander leaves. Serve with rice.
