Rendang is a type of curry dish originally came from Padang / Minangkabau – Sumatra, Indonesia. This meat dish traditionally prepared during festive occasions such as traditional ceremonies, wedding party and Ramadhan. The slow cooking process allows the meat to absorb all the spices and to become tender. It is time consuming and requires patience but trust me, it’s all worth it 🙂
Typical curry dish, you can change the meat with chicken, egg, veggies or fish. Cooking time is depend on the type of meat you use. It can be up to 3 hours for beef. Use the meat that contain little bit of fat like scotch fillet to shorten the cooking time.
