What it is
Thailand's mellow, Persian-kissed curry: beef braised in coconut milk with cinnamon, cardamom, roasted peanuts and potatoes until spoon-tender. Ingredients: beef shin, coconut milk, massaman paste (dried chiles, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, cumin, coriander, lemongrass, galangal, garlic), potatoes, onions, roasted peanuts, fish sauce, palm sugar, tamarind. Recipe: 1) Crack coconut cream and fry the paste until fragrant. 2) Add beef and remaining coconut milk; braise low. 3) Add potatoes, onions and peanuts; simmer until the beef yields. 4) Balance with fish sauce, palm sugar and tamarind — gentle, not fiery. Serve: over jasmine rice. Flavor: warm-spiced, nutty, faintly sweet — closer to a Persian stew than a Thai fire curry. History: born of Persian and Indian Muslim traders at the Ayutthaya court; a 17th-century poem praises it, and CNN's readers once voted it the world's most delicious food.
