Beef Rendang
Yield: 4
Rich, slow-cooked and deeply comforting, this beef rendang brings together tender Farm 88 chuck steak and Ayam’s coconut cream and rendang paste for a curry layered with spice, toasted coconut and aromatic flavours. Simmered until the beef is fork-tender, it’s a hearty curry best enjoyed with rice.
