Why Everyone Loves This Recipe

This dish offers rich, bold flavors with minimal effort. Slow cooking allows the beef to become tender while absorbing the fragrant spices. It’s a comforting meal that brings a taste of Thailand right to your home.

Better Cooking Tips

- Use lean beef cuts like chuck or brisket for best results.
- Brown the beef before slow cooking to add extra depth of flavor.
- Add coconut milk towards the end to prevent curdling and keep the sauce creamy.

Step 1

Lightly heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a bit of oil. Brown the beef in two batches, cooking each side for about 3 minutes until nicely seared. Once browned, transfer the beef to the slow cooker.

Step 2

Pour the beef broth into the same skillet and give it a good scrape to loosen all those flavorful bits stuck to the bottom. Pour this broth into the slow cooker along with the curry paste, chopped onion, brown sugar, and fish sauce. Give everything a good stir to mix it all together, then cover and let it cook on low for about 8 hours.

Step 3

When the slow cooker time is almost up, add the green beans and coconut milk. Turn the heat up to high and let it cook for another 12 minutes. Finally, turn off the heat and stir in the fresh spinach, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice to brighten everything up before serving.

Creative Serving Ideas

Serve with steamed jasmine rice or sticky rice to soak up the delicious sauce. Fresh herbs like cilantro or Thai basil make great garnishes. A side of lightly steamed vegetables or a crisp cucumber salad adds a refreshing balance.

Refrigeration Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave to keep the beef tender. You can also freeze the curry for up to 2 months; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
