2 lbs boneless top round beef, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup peeled thinly sliced gingerroot (about 2 ounces)
Paste
3 dried New Mexico chiles, soaked, seeded and deveined
3 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 large shallot, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup water
Stew
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon mushroom soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup green coconut juice
1/4 cup tamarind juice
fresh cilantro stem, for garnish
cucumber, slices

1
Put the beef in a medium bowl. Grind the ginger slices with a mortar and pestle, adding them a few at a time until you have extracted most of the juice, or use a mini-chop to make a wet paste. Squeeze the juice from the fibers (you should have 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons) and stir it into the beef; discard the ginger solids. Let the beef marinate for at least 10 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, make the paste: Blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
3
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are released, about 2 minutes. Stir in the beef, sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, salt, pepper and broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until the liquid is reduced by half, about 40 minutes.
4
Add the coconut and tamarind juices and cook for another 20 minutes. If the sauce is too thin at this point, increase the heat and reduce further; the sauce should be fairly thick.
5
Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve with cucumber slices and rice.
