素豆奶咖喱马铃薯 Vegetarian Potato Curry Rendang

Conventional rendang calls for the use of coconut milk, galangal , lemongrass and kafffir lime leaves combined with other spices. And having to braise for longer period of cooking time till the spices are fully enriched into the dish.

一般传统的仁当咖喱都是采用椰奶，南疆，香茅, kaffir lime leaves 及其他香料。此外，还需要较长的焖煮时间直到香料完全透入食物内。

Unlike most rendang curry which involves longer preparation and cooking time, I decided to come up with an quick and easy version. These days, you could have many commercially packed rendang spices to choose from. However, being a buddhist vegan who also don't consume the five pungent spices commonly found into commercially packed rendang spices, I opted to make do with simple measures. There is no need for blending of the rempah but merely based on simple and direct way of mixing it for the cooking. 

以其跟随传统任当咖喱的较长准备及烹饪时间，我决定采用这个快速简便的版本。虽然您可以容易在市场上购买到许多品牌的商业包装现成的调料，然而，我是因为跟随着佛教信仰吃素及不吃葷菜 唯有自己随便下手配制。通常上，一般商业包装的调料都含又少许的葱，因此我没选上商业包装的调料来做这道菜。这是一道即简单又不须要采用搅拌机来混合调料的食谱。

This recipe will be a good 'quick fix' method of making rendang curry when you do not wish to spend too much time on them. I also opted for soy milk instead of coconut milk after having been recently fed my family with coconut milk laced cooking.

当你忽然有想吃咖喱菜肴的念头，这将会是一个快速的方法。在此，我选择采用豆奶水来取代椰汁，相比下会较低脂。
