Cheat Pantry Beef Rendang Sandwich

It’s hard to make close-to-authentic beef rendang here. For starters, we don’t always have easy access to some of its key ingredients: galangal, cardamom pods, cloves, and so on. This cheat beef rendang uses ingredient alternatives that you can easily find in your grocery (or in your pantry). We designed this recipe as a sandwich, but feel free to spoon it over rice instead.
