Step 1

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and add a few tablespoons of the coconut milk along with the massaman curry paste, stirring for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 3

Pour in the remaining coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 4

Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Add the sliced onion and potatoes and continue simmering, covered, for 30-40 minutes, until the beef is fork-tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

Step 6

Stir in the peanuts and simmer uncovered for 5 more minutes to thicken the sauce.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning, then serve hot with steamed rice.
