Turmeric is one of my favorite spices to use. Besides many health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties, it makes food taste good and I love the yellow hue it gives a dish. I used it a lot when I cook our Malaysian dishes. One of the dishes I tried out is a recipe from Salt & Turmeric . This dish is cooked on low flame till the water evaporates completely and the beef and potatoes are tender. Delicious!!
Ingredients:
Adapted from Salt & Turmeric with minor changes
1lb beef tenderloin, thinly sliced
Water, enough to cover the beef
4 tbsp olive oil
2 small potato, peel and cut into 1” pieces – par-boiled until slightly soft
1 tbsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp sambal Oelek (optional)
1 tsp of dark soy sauce
1 yellow pepper - cut into 1" cube
2 red chilies - cut small
2 cloves of garlic - chopped
2 spring onions - cut into 1" length
Salt, black pepper and sugar to taste
1. Put the beef in a sauté pan or wok and add water enough to cover the beef. Cook until the beef is soft and water has completely evaporates. Stir occasionally.
2. Add in the oil, garlic, potato, sambal oelek and turmeric powder. Turn down the flame, stir regularly until the beef looks crunchy and the potato is soft.
3. Add the bell peppers, salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Continue stirring for 2 minute. Check seasoning, add in the spring onions.
4. Serves with warm white rice.

Humm, this dish looks gorgeous and mouth watering, I was wondering, would it taste different with the fresh tumeric root? would you advise it?
Ancoo, thanks for stopping by.
Christelle, you can use the fresh turmeric root but you have to grate it really fine before using it.
