Meaty Massaman Curry

Difficulty: Medium

Serves 4-6

Massaman curry is dope but the difficult part is either a) finding a curry paste without shrimp/fish or b) having the energy to make your own curry paste. I recently found a Massaman curry paste at Woolworths in a tidy, yellow can that to my surprise doesn’t contain shrimp or fish! Combined with beef style chunks and potato, this little can packs a big punch in the flavour department.

Ingredients

• 1 brown onion, cut into small chunks
• 8 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
• 1 packet of beef chunks, cut into smaller pieces
• 1 can of Maesri Massaman Curry paste
• 2-3 cans of light coconut milk
• Chopped peanuts to garnish

Method

1. In a large saucepan or wok, lightly fry the onion in some olive oil.
2. Add the curry paste and one can of coconut milk, mix well.
3. Throw in the potato and enough coconut milk to cover it (about one can).
4. Cook on a high heat until the potato has nearly cooked, add the beef chunks.
5. Once the potato has cooked completely you may want to add more coconut milk depending on your desired consistency.
6. Sprinkle with chopped nuts and serve with rice.
