In a pan, heat the oil to medium hot, cook the paste for 3–4 minutes, add the meat and continue cooking to slightly brown. Add tamarind, sugar, salt, water, coconut milk and kechap manis. Cook gently, making sure it is stirred constantly for 1½ hours or until tender. Keep stirring to prevent it from burning at the bottom. Add water if it is too thick. Add the desiccated coconut and continue cooking for 20 minutes. Rendang is ready when meat is tender and dry in consistency. Season to taste, garnish with chopped coriander and chopped chilli.
