Sambal Daging Sapi Minang
Ingredients:
- 1/2 kg Beef, thinly sliced
- 1 Potato, diced
- 2 Tomatoes
- 15 Red Chili Peppers
- 10 Bird’s Eye Chili Peppers
- 10 Shallots
- 5 Garlic Cloves
- 5 Bay Leaves
- Salt to taste
- Seasoning (optional) to taste
Instructions:
-
Tenderizing the Beef:
- Begin by boiling the thinly sliced beef with 5 bay leaves to ensure it becomes tender. Don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to the boiling water for enhanced flavor. If you have a pressure cooker, this process should take about 30 minutes. For a regular pot, expect to boil the beef for about 1-2 hours until it reaches the desired tenderness.
-
Preparing the Tomato and Chili Paste:
- While the beef is boiling, bring the tomatoes and both types of chili peppers to a boil briefly until fragrant.
- Once boiled, coarsely grind the tomatoes, chili peppers, shallots, and garlic cloves together. The key is to leave the mixture somewhat coarse, which will enhance the texture and flavor of the dish after cooking.
-
Frying the Beef and Potatoes:
- After the beef has become tender, drain it and proceed to fry the slices until they turn a nice brown color. Be cautious not to fry them too long, as you want the beef to remain juicy.
- In a separate pan, fry the diced potatoes until they are golden and crispy.
-
Cooking the Sambal:
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a pan. Add the coarsely ground tomato and chili mixture, seasoning it with salt and additional seasoning to your taste.
- Once the mixture is well cooked and the aroma is irresistible, add in the fried beef and potatoes. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure the beef and potatoes are evenly coated with the rich sambal.
