   • Cut the beef into small chunks to make it easier to process. This will help achieve a finer texture in the final product.

2. Make the Spice Paste:

   • Blend the garlic, onion, black peppercorns, and nutmeg together to create a smooth spice paste. You can use a food processor or a mortar and pestle for this task.

3. Process the Mixture:

   • Combine the beef chunks, bread crumbs, eggs, and spice paste in a food processor. Gradually add the cold milk in small amounts to ensure the mixture remains thick and not too watery. Process until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.

4. Season and Adjust:

   • Transfer the processed mixture to a mixing bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or sugar according to your preference.

5. Wrap the Mixture:

   • To shape your galantine, you can use banana leaves for a traditional touch or a baking dish lined with a small amount of oil. If using banana leaves, wrap the mixture tightly, resembling the shape of a lontong (rice cake). If using a baking dish, press the mixture evenly into the dish.

6. Steam:

   • Steam the wrapped galantine for approximately 60 minutes. This process ensures that the beef mixture cooks thoroughly and develops a rich flavor.

7. Finish and Serve:

   • Once steamed, your galantine will be ready to use in various dishes. You can slice and fry it, add it to a flavorful soup, or incorporate it into a Solo-style salad.
