What it is

The world's most patient curry: beef braised in coconut milk and a ground-spice lemongrass paste for hours until the sauce fries in its own oil and coats the meat dark mahogany. Ingredients: beef shin, coconut milk, lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, dried chiles, shallots, garlic, ginger, kaffir lime leaves, tamarind, toasted coconut (kerisik), turmeric leaves. Recipe: 1) Blend the spice paste; fry until fragrant. 2) Add beef and coconut milk; simmer uncovered. 3) Stir through the long reduction — first a curry (gulai), then a wet rendang (kalio), finally dry and dark. 4) Add kerisik and lime leaves at the end. Serve: with steamed rice and sambal at Padang restaurants and Eid feasts. Flavor: profound, spicy, coconut-toffee depth. History: from the Minangkabau highlands of West Sumatra, built to keep for weeks on journeys; CNN readers voted it the world's most delicious food. See also: Nasi Goreng, Gado-Gado.
