This is an authentic dish from Padang (West Sumatra, Indonesia) where my mom’s family came from. It’s really hard to replicate as the type of chili that exist in UK is less spicy compared to the ones in Indonesia. This recipe is from my friend, Reza. This version reminded me of the one I had in Bandung during college days. Soooo goooood!!! Happy holidays all!

Steps

1 hour

1

Stick up fork to the thin-sliced beef to allow seasonings to easily absorb within. Cut potatoes into small pieces.
2

Prepare the beef seasoning mix. Cut ginger into small pieces, peel the garlic cloves, and mix together with the rest of the ingredients to a blender. Blend it together.
3

Add the blended beef seasoning mix to the beef. Use your hands to mix it together and make sure that all parts of the beef are well-seasoned. Let it rest for at least 30 mins (it’ll be much better if you leave overnight, but not a must).
4

Boil the beef with water, chicken stock, and orange leaves for 30 mins in medium heat.
5

As you wait for the beef to cook and get tender, cut the chilies to small pieces, get rid of the stalks, and blend it together with vegetable oil, umami seasoning, and garlic cloves.
6

Drizzle more vegetable oil to the pan in medium-high heat, add the blended chili mix to the pan for 3-4 mins. Then add the beef and cook together for 4-5 mins until tender. Take it out and let it rest.
7

Stir-fry the potato with oil, salt, and pepper. When finished, mix it together with the beef. Dendeng batokok is served! Best to eat it with rice.
