3. Sauté the Spice Paste: Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a pan. Add the spice paste and sauté until fragrant. Add the bay leaves, lemongrass, and galangal, and continue to cook for a few minutes.

4. Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in some water and Kara coconut milk into the pan. Stir well to combine with the spice paste.

5. Cook the Beef Liver: Add the pre-cooked beef liver into the pan. Simmer gently, allowing the liver to absorb the rich flavors of the spices and coconut milk.

6. Season and Simmer: Sprinkle in Royco seasoning, a touch of Sasa seasoning if using, and sugar. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer until the sauce reduces and the oil starts to separate.

7. Final Touches: Allow the dish to simmer for a few more minutes, letting the flavors meld together perfectly. Once the rendang reaches the desired consistency and richness, remove from heat.

8. Serve: Serve the rendang hot, ideally with steamed rice. Enjoy the rich and aromatic flavors of this Indonesian classic.

Notes

• Spice Adjustment: Adjust the number of red chilies to your preferred level of spiciness.
• Consistency: The longer you cook the rendang, the richer and thicker it will become. Ensure you stir occasionally to prevent burning.
• Additional Ingredients: Feel free to add other ingredients like kaffir lime leaves or turmeric leaves for added aroma and flavor.
