Beef Rendang

You could just strain it through a large sieve then put back however much sauce you want - this is quicker than reducing the sauce down and the excess can be frozen for other uses.

your so clever Judy

[Mama Fergie]

You are right Judy as that would work but by reducing the sauce the flavour intensifies. It's a good idea to just remove most of the sauce without the meat and just reduce it in an open pan on the stove and then return it to the meat when it has reduced by two thirds.
Hope you enjoy it MEP

Thanks Suzanne, Judy and MF. I transferred to stove top and reduced. It took several hours though, plus I had to add some potato starch to thicken. Unfortunately, with the long reduction time, the meat became tough. With the bebefit of hindsight, next time I will remove the meat first as recommended by MF and only add meat back in once sauce has thickened and reduced.

Absolutely LOVED the flavour. Without a doubt the BEST curry I have made from scratched myself. 

I've had the 5-in-1 cooker for over six months I think and used it for the first time today so that was a bonus too. Not as scary using a pressure cooker as I had thought.

Thank you so much for sharing such a delicious recipe. Much appreciated by DH and myself

We had the left overs in pies last night

I made this the other day, we both loved it.  Has so much flavour.   

Next time I will double the recipe for the freezer.

The only thing I would do next time is cook for 25 mins instead of 35.  I did cut my meat into quite large cubes, but even still they were falling apart at the end so it looked a little sloppy.  Not a big issue though.  Thanks Mama.

Looks great Julie. Can I ask what cut of beef you used? I have some chuck I was thinking of using.

[JulieO]

Thankyou. 

Wonder I used blade steak on this day, but chuck would be good too.

Cooked this tonight and it was yummy.  A little hot for our family though, next time I would only put 3- 4 chillis in it.  An extra tin of coconut cream helped to cool it down a little.  Thanks for posting this recipie.

Making this again today

I must have missed this recipe when it was first posted, made it for dinner Monday night  both DH and I loved. Made the left overs into pies for a very quick and easy dinner tonight,
This is a winner mama Fergie in our house.
