For some reason, the begedils that I’ve eaten at nasi padang stalls don’t usually have meat in them, so I’ve been wanting to try making my own with minced beef. At home, I usually boil the potatoes for ease, but I thought this time around I’d try deep-frying them, the traditional way. I really loved the results - just a few ingredients, but the extra care that comes from browning the beef, making homemade fried onions/ shallots, and frying the potatoes does make a difference.
Begedils with Minced Beef
Serves 6
130g red onion, sliced
1kg peeled potatoes, sliced thickly
300g minced beef
60g red onion, diced
30g coriander or Chinese celery stems
30g spring onions
White pepper and salt to taste
Beaten egg
Kecap manis and cut chilli (optional, to serve)
Cover sliced red onion with oil and fry on high heat until golden and crispy. Strain and, using the same oil, gently deep fry potatoes until lightly browned and cooked through. Drain on kitchen towels. Pour away the oil from the pan (reserve for future use) and set the pan on high heat. Add the minced beef and fry until cooked and lightly browned. Add diced red onion. Fry until the onion softens. Season with salt. In a large bowl, mash potatoes and mix with fried beef mixture, fried onion, coriander, and spring onion. Taste and season with white pepper and salt. Form golf ball-sized amounts of the mixture into patties. Dip in beaten egg and deep fry until golden brown. Drain on kitchen towels. Serve with kecap manis and cut chilli if desired.
