Instructions

Add olive oil, garlic, and ginger to a skillet over medium-heat. SautÃ© for 3-4 minutes until aromatic.

Add beef and cook for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned. Add in the red curry paste, serrano chili, and basil. Cook for 3-4 minutes.

Pour in beef broth and coconut milk and give it a stir. Bring to a simmer, then add the kosher salt, red and yellow bell peppers, brown sugar, and lime juice. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes over low heat, until the beef is tender.

Taste for seasoning, adding salt or additional lime juice as needed, and serve with toasted cashews and fresh torn mint and basil.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Curry Paste Power 🌶️
Toast the red curry paste in oil for 30-60 seconds before adding other ingredients to unlock deeper, more complex flavor profiles.
Meat Slicing Technique 🔪
Cut beef chuck against the grain into thin, uniform slices to ensure maximum tenderness and quick, even cooking in the skillet.
Cashew Crunch Timing 🥜
Toast cashews separately and add them at the very end of cooking to maintain their crisp texture and prevent soggy nuts.
Coconut Milk Magic 🥥
Use full-fat coconut milk and allow it to slightly reduce to concentrate flavors and create a richer, more luxurious sauce.
Herb Layering Trick 🌿
Mix Thai basil, regular basil, and mint with varying proportions to create a multi-dimensional herbal finish that elevates the entire dish.
