How to Make Thai Spicy Beef

  1. In a large bowl, combine the beef, fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and pepper. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably longer for deeper flavor.
  2. Heat the oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and stir-fry until browned.
  3. Add the onions, green chilies, and ginger to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  4. Stir in the curry powder, red curry paste, and turmeric. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to release the aromas.
  5. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
  6. Stir in the bell peppers and basil. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  7. Serve hot with steamed rice. Garnish with extra fresh basil leaves, if desired.
