Beef Chunks Braised in Coconut Milk

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

The beef chunks are first quickly seared in coconut oil, then combined with ginger, garlic, and leek. The meat is braised low and slow, first in water and then in coconut milk, which creates a delicate, exotic sauce. It takes some time, but the result is beautifully tender meat that's perfect served with rice.

  1. 1/5

    Sear the meat

    Heat coconut oil in a large non-stick pan. Add the beef chunks, seasoned with salt and pepper, and sear on all sides.
