On the most
romantic nights of the year, one chain of fine Thai dining restaurants in Bedfordshire
is revealing their Beef Massaman recipe. Bangkok Lounge Group, who owns the
chain, are looking to help those couples who like to turn up the heat on that
magical February night.
They believe in offering great-tasting food at
affordable rates and have gone one step further with this signature dish.
They’ve released this exclusive recipe, and food lovers can find out how to
make it for themselves right here.
Company owner Motin Miah wanted to make clear,
“Like all of our dishes, this one tastes best when cooked using fresh
ingredients. It’s an award-winning dish, and one that we would love for more
people to be able to enjoy.”
Ingredients:
- Massaman curry paste (we suggest Mae Ploy)
31g
- Diced onion (3cmx3cm) 52g
- Coconut milk (we suggest Chao Koh) 213g
- New Potatoes (peeled and boiled) 63g
- Sliced thin strips beef top side 147g

- Fish sauce (we suggest Pla Muek) 20g
- Sugar 26g
- Salt 1g
- Vegetable oil 34g
- Tamarind juice (squeeze from wet tamarind)
60g
Method:
1. Place a deep pan or wok over a medium heat
and coat with the oil (10 seconds).
2. Add the massaman curry paste, pour half of
the coconut milk and slowly stir (1 minute).
3. Add the beef and raise the heat. Stir until
the beef is almost cooked (1 minute).
4. Add the potatoes and onion and pour over the
water, tamarind juice and coconut milk. Then, season by adding sugar, fish
sauce and salt. Stir together and simmer over a low heat (3 minutes).
5. Transfer to the bowl and enjoy with steamed
jasmine rice.
A history of fine dining
This isn't the first time that the restaurants
have made the headlines. In 2009, Bangkok Lounge Group won the St Albans
District Chamber of Commerce Community Business Award; and in 2010, they were
runners-up. In 2016, they were highly recommended by Metro online and listed as
one of the top Thai restaurants for vegan food.
