Instructions

  1. Dry the beef with paper towels then season it with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the beef on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot.
  3. Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the beef stock, curry paste, and fish sauce and scrape off the dark bits (the fond) from the bottom of the pot.
  4. Add the beef to the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer gently for 1 hour.
  5. Add the squash to the pot and continue to cook for 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Add the coconut milk and lime juice and season to taste with salt. Serve with Thai basil or cilantro on top.

Notes

  • Kabocha squash also works well in this recipe!
