  1. Heat a pot of water, add salt, then add the bruised lemongrass, bay leaves, and lime leaves.
  2. Add the beef and bring it to a boil, skimming off the scum that rises to the surface.
  3. Simmer for 40 minutes to 1 hour until the beef is tender but not falling apart, then keep the cooking liquid.
  4. Blend the garlic, shallots, curly chilies, large red chilies, bird's eye chilies, and ginger with a little water until smooth but still slightly textured.
  5. Saute the spice paste with the lemongrass, bay leaves, lime leaves, and bruised galangal until cooked and the oil separates.
  6. Add the boiled beef and stir until it is evenly coated in the paste.
  7. Pour in 500 to 600 ml of the beef cooking liquid.
  8. Season with palm sugar, tamarind water, sweet soy sauce, salt, and stock powder.
  9. Cook over low heat until the liquid reduces and the seasoning soaks into the beef.
  10. Adjust with a little granulated sugar and more tamarind water, then keep cooking until thick and almost dry.
  11. Add plenty of whole bird's eye chilies and cook briefly until they soften.
  12. Serve hot with warm white rice.
