Savory Indonesian Beef Fried Rice

Title: Nasi Goreng Sapi (Beef Fried Rice)

Ingredients:

• 2 plates of cooked rice (adjust as needed)
• Thinly sliced beef (seasoned with salt and pepper to taste)
• 2 green chilies (sliced thinly)
• 1/2 onion (sliced thinly)
• For the Spice Paste:
  • 4 shallots
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 4 bird’s eye chilies (adjust for desired spiciness)
  • 3 teaspoons curry powder
  • Salt, sugar, and seasoning to taste
  • Oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef:

   • Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced beef and stir-fry until it is fully cooked. Once the beef is browned, remove it from the pan and set it aside.

2. Prepare the Spice Paste:

   • In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Sauté the sliced onion until it becomes translucent.
   • Add the prepared spice paste to the pan. Cook until the shallots and garlic are fragrant and slightly caramelized.

3. Combine Ingredients:

   • Add the cooked beef back into the pan, along with the green chilies. Stir to combine everything well.
   • Next, add the cooked rice to the pan. Mix thoroughly, ensuring that the rice is evenly coated with the spice paste and combined with the beef and vegetables.

4. Season and Cook:

   • Season with salt, sugar, and additional seasoning to taste. Stir-fry the mixture, adjusting the cooking time based on your preference for the rice—whether you prefer it slightly moist or drier.
   • Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

5. Serve:

   • Once the rice is cooked to your liking and well-seasoned, remove it from the heat. Serve hot.
