Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2.5 – 3 pound chuck roast
- 1 cup beef broth
- Two 14.5-ounce cans coconut milk
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 4-ounce jar Thai-style red curry paste
- 1.5-inch piece fresh ginger
- 6 large garlic cloves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Flour for seasoning
- Optional: sliced onions for serving
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for the slow roasting of the beef.
- Sear Chuck Roast: Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt, pepper, and a light dusting of flour. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes per side, then remove the roast and set it aside.
- Prepare Sauce: Reduce heat to medium-low and add beef broth, coconut milk, soy sauce, Thai red curry paste, fresh ginger piece, garlic cloves, and additional seasonings like sugar and fish sauce if desired into the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients into a smooth sauce base.
- Roast Beef: Return the seared chuck roast to the pot with the sauce, cover with a lid, and place the Dutch oven in the preheated oven. Roast for 2 hours or until the meat is fork-tender and infused with curry flavors.
- Shred Beef: Remove the beef from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef back into the sauce. Add sliced onions if desired and stir to combine.
- Serve: Serve the coconut red curry drip beef hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete, comforting meal.
Notes
- Use a Dutch oven or any oven-safe heavy pot for best slow-cooking results.
- Adjust the amount of red curry paste depending on your spice preference.
- Flour is used to help brown and create a slight crust on the beef before roasting.
- Adding sliced onions at the end adds a fresh texture contrast but is optional.
- Serve with jasmine rice or egg noodles for an authentic Thai-inspired experience.
