INGREDIENTS

Beef
  • 1 pack of Sadia Beef Rendang 
Ingredients 
  • 2 cups basmati rice
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1½ cups warm water
  • 2 pandan leaves, leaves-knotted
  • 1 onion, cut into quarters
  • 10g belacan, shrimp paste
  • 2 tbsp ayam sambal oelek
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 ½ cups ikan bilis 
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 tbsp tamarind water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp roasted peanuts 
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
Optional
  • 1 fried egg

METHOD

  1. Wash the rice several times under running water until the water is mostly clear. In a rice cooker, combine the rice, coconut cream, water, pandan leaves and salt. Cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Once cooked, open the lid to fluff the rice, and place it in a bowl. Set aside.
  3. Prepare the Sadia Beef Rendang based on the packaging instructions. Once cooked, set the beef rendang aside. 
  4. While the beef rendang is cooking, you may start to prepare the sambal ikan bilis. Blend onion, belacan, sambal oelek, and garlic in a food processor until smooth to form a paste.
  5. Next, heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Fry ikan bilis until golden brown then set aside to drain on a paper towel. 
  6. In the same work, fry the earlier paste for 1 minute until fragrant. Next, add tamarind water and sugar, and fry for another minute. Return the ikan bilis to the wok and cook for another 3 minutes.
  7. Take out the rice from the rice cooker, and portion the rice and beef rendang on a plate. Use a fork to fluff the rice and add the sambal ikan bilis on the side before serving. 
  8. Add the roasted peanuts and cucumber for final touches. Optionally, top with a fried egg for final touches. Serve and enjoy!
