Steps:
- Dry the beef with paper towels then season it with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the beef on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot.
- Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the beef stock, curry paste, and fish sauce and scrape off the dark bits (the fond) from the bottom of the pot.
- Add the beef to the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer gently for 1 hour.
- Add the squash to the pot and continue to cook for 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Add the coconut milk and lime juice and season to taste with salt. Serve with Thai basil or cilantro on top.

SPICY THAI RED BEEF CURRY
Steps:
- For the red curry paste: In a food processor, combine the cilantro, oil, ginger, lemongrass, coriander, cumin, shrimp paste, garlic, red chiles, lime leaf, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pulse to a consistent paste.
- For the curry: Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the curry paste and cook, stirring well, until aromatic, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the pot and increase the heat to high. Sprinkle the flank steak with a pinch of salt, then add it to the pot; cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the steak and add the onions and peppers; cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the coconut milk, bring to a gentle boil, then add the curry paste back to the pot; stir well. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. (If the coconut milk breaks and separates, don't worry: it will come back together to a smooth consistency.) Add the chicken broth and fish sauce, and continue simmering until the sauce has a nice, gravy-like consistency, 12 to 15 minutes. Return the beef to the pot and finish with the cilantro, basil, mint and lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
RED THAI BEEF CURRY
Here is a yummy red Thai curry recipe, it is also good made with lamb. I used Thai Kitchen brand, red curry paste. I do have a recipe for making your own from scratch which is great, and you can store the paste for up to 4 weeks in the fridge. As I didn't have any on hand I used a store bought one to save time and I have to say Thai Kitchen does do a good paste.

MEILING'S YUMMY THAI YELLOW CURRY
I got this recipe from a Thai cooking class (taught by Meiling Dawson @ Orson Gygi) and modified it just a little. It's very versatile and delicious. Sometimes I use tofu instead of chicken or all veggies. I use whatever vegetables I have on hand... carrots, onions, peppers, broccoli, etc. Beef can also be used or red curry (I'm going to post the beef and red curry in a separate recipe... but the meats and curries are interchangeable. I serve it over cooked rice (I use 1 cup of brown rice which I boil for 20 minutes before adding a cup of white rice... for better health without sacrificing texture or flavor).

Steps:
- Heat oil in pan on medium heat and add curry paste. Stir fry until fragrant.
- Add chicken and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Add coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, paprika, and lime zest or kaffir leaves.
- Continue to simmer chicken for about 10 minutes, then add potatoes.
- Add other veggies about 5 minutes after potatoes.
- Total cooking time after adding chicken to pan is ~30 minutes.
- Serve with rice. I like to use brown rice because it is healthy. I cook the brown rice for about 20 minutes before adding white rice (I use calrose) -- it makes a great mixture that is much healthier than plain white rice.
- Notes on ingredients --
- Curry: I have found the brand Mae Ploy is sold in generous sizes and is very reasonably price (it comes in a 14 oz round cardboard carton which is refrigerated after opening and lasts a LONG time, and I paid about $2.50 in an asian market).
- Fish Sauce: I have been very happy with the asian market brand Viet Huong Three Crabs Brand (there's a white square with 3 green crabs on the center of the label).
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your curry will taste. Look for fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the recipe to your taste: This recipe is a starting point. Feel free to add more or less of any ingredient to suit your taste.
- Serve with your favorite sides: Thai red curry is delicious served with rice, noodles, or vegetables. You can also add a side of crispy shallots or peanuts for extra crunch.
