Melt the butter in a fry pan, brown off the beef cheeks on both sides. Remove from the fry pan and put into a slow cooker or oven proof dish.

 

Place onion, garlic, ginger, chillies, coriander, cardamom and turmeric into a food processor and whizz to form a semi-fine paste. Spoon into the same fry pan and cook over a medium heat for 10 mins. Add to the beef cheek.

 

Add the coconut milk and cinnamon sticks and season.

 

Cover with a lid and cook in the slow cooker or oven (130°C) for around 5-6 hours until tender.

 

Add the tamarind paste, coriander and lime leaf and season and cook uncovered for another ½ hour.

 

Remove the cinnamon sticks and lime leaf. Check seasoning.

 

Spoon into a serving dish, top with crisp fried shallots and sliced spring onion. Serve with rice.
