Ingredients
  

For the sauce:

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, coriander powder, turmeric powder, palm sugar, and salt to create a marinade.
  • Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
  • Fry the marinated beef slices until they turn brown and crispy on both sides. This may take around 3-4 minutes per side. Set the fried beef aside.
  • In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
  • Add the fried beef slices to the boiling water and let them cook for about 30 minutes until tender. This step helps to further tenderize the meat.
  • Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and drain the excess liquid.
  • In a clean frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat.
  • Sauté the finely chopped shallots, garlic, and red chili peppers until fragrant and golden brown.
  • Add tamarind paste, palm sugar, and salt to the pan. Stir well until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Place the fried and boiled beef slices in the pan with the sauce. Coat the beef slices evenly with the sauce.
  • Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  • Remove from heat and serve the Empal Gepuk hot with steamed rice or your preferred side dishes.
