   In a large casserole dish with a lid, heat 2 tablespoons coconut cream. Add the curry paste and fry for 1 minute, then stir in the beef and fry until well coated and sealed.

4. 4

   Stir in the rest of the coconut cream with half a can of water, the potatoes, onion, lime leaves, cinnamon, tamarind, sugar, fish sauce and most of the peanuts.

5. 5

   Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 2 hours in the oven until the beef is tender.

6. 6

   Sprinkle with sliced chilli and the remaining peanuts, then serve straight from the dish with jasmine rice.
