Reposting an old favorite! This video is extra special! It was from when we first moved here, and I was craving masak asam pedas but didn’t have all the ingredients. I had to improvise, and after that first bite—wow. Even though it was just inspired, I honestly have no words to describe it. So good, so comforting. I even used arugula as my ulam! Fast forward, now I know exactly where to go and which Asian store has what I need... haha! 😉😜 Masak Asam Pedas-Inspired "Beef Stew" 🍛 This dish is my take on Masak Asam Pedas, a Malay spicy tamarind gravy traditionally made with fish, beef, or chicken. 🍛 Some key ingredients were hard to find when we first moved here, so I had to get creative with substitutions—doing my best to stay true to the flavors I love. 🍛 Over time, I’ve learned to go with the flow. Even Asian markets don’t always have what I need, and that’s okay. ❤️ I make the best of what I have, enjoy the process, and keep cooking! 🤩 🛒Ingredients •500g Beef ( or chicken ) •2Tbs Cooking Oil •6 cloves garlic, slice •1 thumbsize ginger, julienne •1 habanero, slice •10 sprigs Fresh Thyme •1-2Tbsp Chilli Oil •1 cup Liquid Beef Stock ( or Liquid chicken stock) •2Tbsp Soya Sauce •1 cube beef stock •1-2 stalk Lemongrass ( fresh is always better unless if you dont have then opt to Lemongrass paste •1 whole lemon, squeeze the juices •Salt and sugar to taste •1 Whole or half Large Red Onions, cut into wedges •Garnish with coriander leaves 👩🍳 Method as shown in the video 🍽Serves with piping hot rice, omelette and Arugula ( Ruccola / Rocket ). So so good! Enjoy😘
