My First Recipes to Rival! Beef Rendang

This is my very FIRST Recipes to Rival and yes I made a few modifications. First of all, I cooked the dish in my Slow Cooker instead of having it simmer in a pot cuz I just didn't have the time (or patience) to watch it cook for 4 hours! I also only have our tiny Safeway to buy my ingredients from so some of the seasonings like Fresh Tumeric and Lemon Grass were just not possible. BUT the good news is that this dish turned out REALLY yummy and I think the addition of potatoes really bulked it up, making it a meal! Our apartment was filled with a wonderful CURRY aroma ALL day!

Ingredients:

3 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 2-inch pieces
10 small potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces
1/3 c chopped onions (frozen)
1 Tbsp grated ginger
3 Tbsp chopped garlic
2 tsp grated nutmeg
1 Tbsp curry powder
½ tsp crushed red pepper
1 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
1 can (15 oz) coconut milk

Prep:

1. Put the beef and potatoes in the slow cooker.

2. Mix together everything else except coconut milk and pour over beef.

3. Stir in coconut milk and cover. Cook on low setting for 9-10 hours, until the liquid is almost all reduced.

WOW! Congrats for trying it in the slow cooker, it must have been fabulous after siummering for that long.
