Steps

1

Blend all the ingredients below to make the spices paste (rempah)
2

Heat 1/2 cup of Oil to saute all the blended ingredients and chili paste until it sufficiently cooked, allowing the oil to separate and float about the other ingredients, forming two distinct layers. That is when one knows that the rempah is almost ready, as it darkens considerably and begins to glisten.
3

Mix chicken with the rempah paste. Continue to cook until the chicken skin begins to brown slightly.
4

Coconut milk is then added, and together with it the kaffir lime leaves, tumeric leaves, lemongrass. Crushing or ripping the leaves help to release the aroma from the leaves. Everything is stirred thoroughly before being allowed to simmer, without the lid so as to allow the sauce to darken as well as thicken.
5

Add coconut paste and stir well to incorporate into rendang gravy. Taste and adjust with salt, sugar, tamarind sauce accordingly.Continue to heat for another 10-20 min until low heat until the chicken is nicely tender and the gravy is thick and reduced.

Done!
