Finely chop the lime leaves, removing the hard middle part. Peel, halve and slice the large and small onions. Peel the garlic and cut into thin slices. Cut off the stem of the green chillies and cut the chilli into small pieces.
Heat a medium pan. Pour in six tablespoons of the peanut oil, swirl the pan and when the oil is hot enough (bubbles form at the bottom of the pan), add the finely chopped ingredients, from onions to chillies, and roast until the onions start to brown. Add the ginger, sambal, lemongrass paste and coconut milk and stir. Deglaze with the water. Add the lime and tamarind juice. Add the kecap rumah asin and the beef broth. Season to taste with honey and salt. Bring to the boil briefly, add the lime leaves, garnish and serve hot.
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
