400 ml (131/2 fl oz) coconut milk

8 small potatoes (any variety) or 4 large potatoes, cut into 2 cm (3/4 inch) chunks (peeling optional)

2 onions, sliced into thick wedges

1 tbsp fish sauce

1 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp lime juice

2 cinnamon sticks

1 star anise

Напрямки

Heat the oil in a large heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Add the beef to the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until browned. This step is important as it adds flavour. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir together the curry paste, chicken stock and coconut milk to form a sauce.

Add the fish sauce, sugar and lime juice (if using). Mix well to combine.

In your slow-cooker, layer the beef, potatoes and onion in that order.

Pour the sauce over the top. Don’t worry if some of the potatoes and onion are not submerged – they will melt into the sauce during the cooking process.

Add the cinnamon sticks and star anise (if using).

Slow-cooker

– Cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours. If the beef is still firm at the end of the cooking time, continue cooking on high in 30-minute intervals. The beef should fall apart easily using a fork. Use tongs to gently pull it apart into smaller, bite-sized pieces to serve.

Pressure cooker

– Cook on high pressure for 1 hour, then use quick release to release the pressure immediately. If the sauce looks a little thin, turn on the sauté function and simmer for 5–10 minutes with the lid off to reduce and thicken slightly. The beef should be fall-apart tender.

Serve the curry over steamed rice with roti or naan on the side. Top with crushed peanuts, coriander, chilli (if using) and lime wedges.
