    1

    Cut the beef into medium-sized cubes and set aside.

    2

    Finely chop the onions, garlic, ginger, galangal root, and chilies, or blend into a paste.

    3

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the coconut milk over medium heat. Add the prepared spice paste. Stir and cook until fragrant, about 5 minutes.

    4

    Add the beef to the pot and stir to coat evenly with the spice mixture.
