Lapis palaro

Lapis palaro is a traditional dish originating from Maluku islands. The dish is usually made with a combination of beef, corn starch, oil, and a spice paste consisting of shallots, garlic, ginger, galangal, coriander, nutmeg, cumin, hot peppers, salt, and sugar.

The beef is cut into slices, and it is then placed in a pan with the spice paste and water. The meat is cooked over medium heat until tender, and it's then taken out of the pan and fried in oil until golden brown. The corn starch is mixed with the leftover broth and it's cooked into a sauce that's seasoned with salt and sugar before it's poured over fried beef slices.
