Savory Krengsengan Beef Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 650 g beef, cut into chunks (Pre-boil the beef to tenderize it quickly)
  • 2 ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • Sweet soy sauce, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon dried shrimp
  • Water, as needed
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil, for sautéing

For the Spice Blend (Blend with a bit of oil, not water):

  • 6 shallots
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 4 curly red chilies
  • 3 cm ginger
  • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Beef:

    • Combine the beef chunks with the spice blend. Gently massage the beef to ensure the spices coat the meat evenly. Allow it to marinate for 15-20 minutes to let the flavors infuse.
  2. Sauté the Beef:

    • Heat the cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the marinated beef and spice blend. Sauté until the beef changes color and is well-browned.
  3. Simmer:

    • Add the chopped tomatoes and enough water to cover the beef. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and let it simmer until the beef is tender and cooked through.
  4. Add Final Ingredients:

    • Stir in the sweet soy sauce and dried shrimp. Mix well to combine. Continue cooking until the sauce is absorbed and the flavors meld together.
  5. Serve:

    • Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Enjoy this savory Krengsengan beef with steamed rice or your favorite side dishes.

This Krengsengan beef recipe delivers a rich and flavorful dish that is perfect for any meal, showcasing the depth of Indonesian cuisine with its blend of spices and tender beef.
