They Said This Was the Best Beef in the World. They Were Right.

Video Description

One bite of Beef Rendang and you’ll see why it’s one of the world’s most beloved beef dishes. This Indonesian comfort food slowly braises beef in a deeply satisfying and complex sauce flavored with bold spices, creamy coconut milk, and a touch of heat. It may not be the quickest meal around, but I promise the flavor-rich bites are well worth your time and patience. → Recipe: PRINT THIS RECIPE: https://www.billyparisi.com/beef-rendang/ MY EQUIPMENT: CUTTING BOARD: https://amzn.to/46uq1OR HALF SHEET PAN: https://amzn.to/3AbGnjr SHEET PAN RACK: https://amzn.to/3YvSeCR PARCHMENT PAPER: https://amzn.to/3Yuu8bA CARBON STEEL PAN: https://amzn.to/4cevScr NON-STICK PAN: https://amzn.to/3ysy2XX STAINLESS PAN: https://amzn.to/3WO1dho CHEF KNIFE: https://amzn.to/3SydDHG DIGITAL SCALE: https://amzn.to/3YOCUld MANDOLIN SLICER: https://amzn.to/4d8AW3k CHINOIS: https://amzn.to/49CmoaY INSTANT READ THERMOMETER: https://www.thermoworks.com/?tw=chefbillyparisi *These are affiliate links that allow me to earn from qualifying purchases* → Ingredients For the Beef: • 3 cups shredded unsweetened coconut • 4 tablespoons avocado or another neutral flavored cooking oil • 3 pounds chuck steak, cut into 2” x 1” x ½” • 1 whole Fresno pepper and 7 seeded Fresno peppers, finely minced/ground • 2 seeded lady finger peppers, finely minced/ground • 6 shallots finely minced, about 1 cup • 8 garlic cloves finely minced • 3 stalks of lemon grass finely minced, ends and outside layer removed • 3 tablespoons of finely minced ginger, about a 3” pieces – peeling can remain on if rinsed • Juice of ½ lemon, about 1 ½ tablespoons • Coarse salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste For the Spice Blend: • 2 cardamom pods • 1 cinnamon stick • 3 cloves • 1 tablespoon cumin seeds • 2 teaspoons of coriander seeds • Half of a nutmeg • 2 star anise • 5 macadamia nuts • 4 bay leaves • 4 lime leaves • 3 15-ounce cans full fat coconut milk • 2 teaspoons palm sugar or light brown sugar Watch more recipe videos: Bistek Tagalog: https://youtu.be/lab_4ptwPjQ Mongolian Beef: https://youtu.be/WuT8nC6yEb0 → Follow Me On: • My Website: https://billyparisi.com • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chefbillyparisi • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chefbillyparisi • Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/chefbillyparisi • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/billyparisi Classical culinary expertise meets home cooking!
