Preparation steps
1.
Soak the tamarinds in 125 ml/ 1/2 cup water for about 30 minutes. Peel and finely slice the onions. Cut the meat into bite-size cubes. Put into a bowl with the fish sauce and let stand for 10 minutes.
2.
Put all the curry paste ingredients into a mortar and grind to a paste.
3.
Heat the oil in a large skillet and brown the meat on all sides in batches. Take the creamy top of the coconut milk and put into a pan. Add the rest of the coconut milk to the skillet with the meat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes.
4.
Bring the coconut cream to a boil in the pan and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the curry paste and stir until dissolved. Add the onions and cook for about 1 minute. Transfer the meat and coconut sauce from the skillet to the saucepan.
5.
Squeeze out the tamarind, discard the fibers and add the liquid to the curry. Simmer for about 15 minutes, until the meat is cooked. Add salt and sugar to taste.
6.
Garnish with Thai basil and serve.
