Add the meat and continue cooking and stirring for about 10 min.
Now add the shredded kafir and tumeric leaves, also the kerisik.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer until the aroma rises and begin to turn brown. At this point the gravy tends to be oily.
The simmering in total takes about an hour, the long cooking time makes the beef tender and it absorbs the rich flavors of the other ingredients.
