gulai darat daging

this morning i thot of cooking kari daging for iftar then it just crossed my mind that i've never tried cooking Gulai Darat and never knew what the ingredients are. so i called my auntie to ask for the recipe.  biasalah, bila mintak recipe dengan my mom or her sister or elderly relatives, they would only list down the ingredients, banyak mana nak pakai semua kena pandai agak2 sendiri sehingga secukup rasa. when i cooked earlier, i didnt really measure precisely the amount of  ketumbar, lada hitam, kunyit & cili boh, amount yang di letak didalam resipi dibawah is just an approximate.

the ingredients are almost the same as Singgang Daging except that for gulai darat, kena tambah kunyit, santan and daun kesom or daun ketumbar. 

ingredients

daging - hiris nipis, macam masak kari. (i used lamb cubes + sliced beef)

1 sudu kecil ketumbar
1 sudu kecil lada hitam
1 sudu kecil serbok kunyit
few slices lengkuas
2 tbsp cili boh
halia sebesar ibu jari - slice thinly
3 bawang putih - chopped
1 bawang merah - chopped
sedikit belacan

semua bahan2 diatas di blend bersama, gaul dengan daging, jerang hingga mendidih kemudian kecilkan api, masukkan air sedikit sampai paras daging and simmer. since i dont have a pressure cooker, i simmered the gulai for about 45 minutes.  bila daging dah empuk, boleh lah tambah air sedikit2 to the required thickness of the kuah seperti masak kari. kemudian, masukkan bahan2 berikut dan biar mendidih.

1 tin kecil santan
2 asam keping
sedikit gula melaka
garam secukup rasa

lastly masukkan daun kesom/ketumbar & whole cili hijau kalau ada.

at iftar, my big missy said "sedap..."
