NOT your average massaman | Marion’s Best Massaman Curry | Marion’s Kitchen

You know how much I love Mama Noi’s cooking… but this beef massaman curry recipe is definitely NOT my mother’s massaman curry! I’m levelling up the flavour of all my ingredients with some extra love and attention, namely hard searing the beef first to get a golden crust instead of simmering on the stovetop, before roasting in the oven to finish things off. Low and slow keeps your beef juicy yet fall-apart tender, plus you also get a more even heat source by using the oven. Because sometimes mums know best… but sometimes us kids can also show them some new tricks! Try my best massaman curry and see what I mean.

My girlfriend always tells me off when I try to bring European cooking techniques (like searing the meat) to some of the asian dishes we make. I think she will accept it now that I have the Marion seal of approval.

[@MUZIKSPOT]

Love those French techniques

[@PeregrineSW]

My boyfriend tells me off when I bring Asian techniques to European dishes🤣 I think it's the future😅

[@animalsmistakenformonsters1492]

Since when do Asians not sear meat?

[@robmills24]

@@animalsmistakenformonsters1492 as Marion mentioned in the video, her mum's traditional recipe for this curry doesn't involve searing the meat. I've found the same in the Cantonese style soup recipes I've seen. Some people seem to prefer the more subtle 'cleaner' flavour you get from not searing the meat, just a matter of preference I guess.

[@lisahinton9682]

@@animalsmistakenformonsters1492 Over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Very very rare that it is seared, and you can't go by what your local Chinese place serves, if they are pandering to an American, or European, customer base.

[@matthewlockhart6243]

I’m making a chicken stock for soup tomorrow and this dish at the same time and the smell! I’m in cooking heaven

[@doodahgurlie]

I have a container of Massaman curry that I need to use since I tend to use more of the Thai red curry, so this is helpful.

[@kateresob9396]

Thanks Marion,Sometime I don't know what to make for supper let alone the kids lunch.I will cook today .thank you for the recipe.how is mama Noi.Bonjour from Montreal Quebec.Canada

[@sarajanehaven]

I tried this recipe last night and it was great but I will add carrots next time, skip the rice and serve with some garlic naan for sopping up the wonderful sauce. This time I added some thick sliced sautéed sweet onion and used a 16oz. jar of massaman curry sauce. It was plenty of fluid for 1.5 lbs of short rib and about 8 small new potatoes which I cut in half. I cooked at 300F for the prescribed time, adding the onion and potatoes for the last half hour. Use full oven mitts to remove the foil and parchment as lots of steam escapes.

[@damianrhea8875]

Marion, your recipes, as exemplified by this dish, are the REAL STUFF - at once “fusion” and CLASSIC !!! Thank you !!!

[@elenang6244]

I really have to stop watching these at midnight and getting inspired but hungry hahaha

[@KitchenWizard]

What a show! Such a pleasure to watch this.😋😍😍

[@fernmaier6842]

I just discovered massaman curry a few months ago and now is my favorite curry. Yours looks amazing, Marion, thanks!

Very nice and delicious food 😋☺️👍😊😊😊😊

[@justinnorrie3594]

Reminds me a bit of the slow-cooked massaman lamb at Prasits in Sydney in the late 90s, early 2000s. I'd kill for his recipe.

[@adeltoh2077]

I have tried your recipe and taste so yummy....kitchen is not messy too...thanks so much..love all your recipes

Thank you so much 😊

[@saadattash]

[@lunatrics]

@@Marionskitchen just made it. Delicious! Next time ill try smoking the ribs on a pelletsmoker before adding em to the oven tray. Leave out the potatoes pour em on french fries. And have a uuuhm not your moms massamam curry poutine. :)

[@jollyfish84]

Going to the shops later... I guess this is dinner tonight! I bought the paste accidentally instead of the red curry paste when it first came out and I wasn't quite sure how to use it as I wasn't familiar with the flavours but I'm going to give this a go!

[@TheLoungingShaman]

Thank you for your bravery:)

[@healthylifebygsk]

Wawoo 👌 outclass recipe you shared today 🤝 during random click I found your channel and after watching your recipe I decided to stay here 😜 you have a great content, I love the way you prepared your recipes 👌 thanks for sharing 👍 keep intouch and stay connected 🤞🤝🌹

[@Marionskitchen]

Aww thanks so much! We're glad that you enjoy our channel 😊 -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@mamababycats]

I made this recipe and it is delicious, the only thing is that I would not put so much salt for searing because the curry becomes 500% saltier, I ended up having to use two cans of coconut milk and 3-4 cups of water to dilute the salt 🤣🤣🤣

[@HoHosKitchen]

thats is so tender,creamy sauce😍😍😋😋

[@LittleMissRuffian]

Always obsessed with your recipes (Chiang Mai is a fave in our house) but I saw this recipe this morning and raced to the shops immediately. It’s so easy and affordable and I can already tell it’s going to be a staple because my partner is devouring it 🥰🥰

[@Marionskitchen]

Wonderful! We're glad you enjoy it! -Team Marion's Kitchen 😁

[@Kevin-rf2iv]

I made this using the last Massaman meal kit I had and it was nice to have short ribs done differently. Would love to get your products in the US but now I'll have to find another source from my Asian market. Still have a General Tso and red curry kit that I'm rationing:)

[@patriciamoradamacabulos8506]

Omg that is so fancy! But actually kind of easier than making it the traditional way? Imagine drizzling some more cream on top right before serving and adding some whole spices to the baking dish… cinnamon, star anise.. and then toasting some cashews to sprinkle on top as a garnish. I’m getting carried away 😅

[@TheBogstaverne]

OMG, I gotta make this now the cold months are coming up

[@charka48]

When will it be available for purchase in the US? I would love to buy.

[@kitchenwithduaa6451]

So delicious and amazing recipe 😍 really good friend 😊 stay connected kitchen with duaa 💞💞

[@JaquesPijman]

Great idea to make in my crockpot express under high pressure for 1 hour!

[@jeffreyalme6480]

I’ve only had thais with peanuts in it, is that a experience you’ve had? So yummy

[@vanq884]

I can’t make this soon enough.

[@tag21au]

I'm watching this on my phone while watching an episode of Wok Vs Pot with Marion and Silvia on TV 😂 - joyously accidental!

[@Marionskitchen]

🤣🤣🤣 Awesome!

[@Justicefu]

awesome recipe, could use fresh lime juice and some lime zest for a bit of acidity imho, I'd love to know why you suggest coconut milk over coconut cream?

[@andrewjackson9417]

I think I'm gonna try this in the crock pot.

[@nancydrew1102]

Yum that looks mouth watering delicious 😋 Marion I saw you had your own spice paste , where can I buy that in NZ ?? If you have a stockist .TIA

[@Marionskitchen]

Unfortunately, they're currently only available in Australia (Coles/Woolworths) at the moment Nancy. We'd really love to bring them to NZ one day soon! -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@veronicakeller9058]

Marion ~ I loved this vid, you are too cute and funny when you mention your mum’s version.😅I tried to buy your curry paste but I am so bummed because it looks like it’s not available in the states… can you recommend a store brand that is as authentic as possible??

[@bwinkle2915]

Try Maesri

[@tomhuynh4609]

that looks so delicious! I checked your US website for the Masanam sauce, why not avail. ?

[@Marionskitchen]

Hi Tom! Thank you so much for your interest! Unfortunately, our curry paste range is only available in Australia at the moment. In the meantime, we do have Marion’s cookbooks available shop.marionskitchen.com/ -Team Marion’s Kitchen

[@RaymondCore]

I like to make Mussaman (Muslim) curry with lamb or goat and eat it with paratha (flaky S. Asian flatbread). I also put 13 prick kee noo chilies in the gravy to cook because 13 is my limit for one plate.

[@PM-oe5mk]

Marion, could this recipe be done using a pressure cooker to cut the time down and then reduce the sauce on the stove top if needed?

[@Marionskitchen]

Totally PM! The adventure is yours 😉 -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@mampuful]

Yummm 😋 I want to cook it with lamb!

[@JeffreyKLHo]

I sear the beef all the time before braising. It's common in chinese cuisine

[@vancevehrs5601]

If you put the rib bones back into the broth right after you pulled them out, could they add extra marrow flavor while simmering?

[@carinaralutin5857]

Mama Noi! I have something to NOT tell you! 😄😂🤣

[@9326ali]

Please bring your products to Canada 🇨🇦!!

[@walterstrahota2956]

I made this tonight. Very tasty but a little salty for me. I wish I had not salted the beef before browning.

[@walterstrahota2956]

Short ribs are expensive here but I bought some anyway to try this. I have some ox tails in the freezer. Would they work also?

[@Marionskitchen]

Definitely Walter! -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@walterstrahota2956]

I made this again with oxtails. I seasoned the meat before browning but no salt. Also I added sliced carrots. Delicious!

[@superha74]

Wud this work with pot roast or brisket? Short rib is very expensive on NYC

[@Marionskitchen]

Definitely!

[@tf1423]

I’ve been following your KZbin videos and love your channel! But I’m cooking this right now and it has been 2 hrs and the beef ribs is not falling apart… I’ve left it in for another hour at 150 Celsius as you’ve said… what am I doing wrong?

[@BlueJazzBoyNZ]

Ox tail also works..

[@design-flux]

Do you plan on releasing your curry pastes in the US? My fallback is Maesri. 😂

[@irrationalmale]

I always used French techniques to make Chinese and Thai food. It really is a hybrid because the flavor is not exactly precise but it is delicious nonetheless. There is nothing wrong with the best of both worlds. Thai food is not exactly indigenous either, notably Massaman Curry.

[@sunnydale6727]

is your massaman curry paste available in America?

[@Marionskitchen]

Not at the moment Sunny, sorry 😅 We'd really love to bring it to the US one day soon! -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@chrishartley4776]

Would this be seen to be a complete meal, if not, what would you serve with it?

[@Marionskitchen]

It can be both Chris 😉 But we suggest you try serving this recipe with rice or bread! -Team Marion's Kitchen

[@adelinereveille9872]

Your product is available in Bangkok?

[@GyMfukU]

I'm Thai and I love to cook Thai food in a western style. grilled/sear meat in a pan before being added to the broth or sauce. Don't tell Uncle Roger he's a conservative.

[@ourfamilysvarietyshow]

I'm going to have to try this using deer

[@JP-lz3vk]

Liked it except removing the fat at the end. Chefs will tell you that the flavour is in the fat...

[@40950999]

A bit too brown in colour.

[@xxx._.mommyxxx7962]

First

[@francisbrown5469]

I surfer a heart condition so over the top salt ingress is suicidal . Every TV cook has to bombard Protein with lashings of salt and when you go to a restaurant and request that the cook not salt your food its like you have insulted the idiots . Salt can be applied at the table as required and really doesn't enhance flavor but covers over protein that is old and going off ...

[@alicia38prado]

Nope, I'm sorry doll face, not my favorite.
