做法
- 在厚底锅中混合牛肉与洋葱泥、姜、蒜、姜黄、辣椒粉、鱼露、ngapi、酱油、罗望子、花生油、盐、桂皮、豆蔻和月桂叶。彻底拌匀。
- 中大火翻炒8分钟。洋葱出水,混合物嗞嗞作响并开始收干。
- 加水,煮至微沸。转小火,加盖煮90分钟,每15分钟搅一次。牛肉应酥烂。
- 开盖,转中大火。再煮30分钟,频繁搅动。汤汁大幅减少,油分离浮起。'si pyan'时刻就是深红的油清晰浮在深色汁面上。
- 起油后即成。捞出桂皮、豆蔻和月桂叶。
- 加盖闷15分钟。配蒸米饭享用;隔夜风味更佳。配生洋葱片、青柠角和一道绿叶菜更妙。

文化背景
缅甸牛肉咖喱是家宴和特殊场合的菜。它体现缅甸'起油'(si pyan)咖喱传统:火候不靠时间,而靠视觉信号——油分离清亮浮起。这种技法需要慷慨用油;现代健康意识强的缅甸厨师会减油,但也接受菜会失去些性格。克什米尔辣椒粉给出标志性的深红色,而不带过分辛辣。
