In my previous post, posted on 13th December 2020, I did share my version of "Green Chicken Rendang' recipe and today's topic is about "Rendang" too, but the red version of it, called "Red Chicken Rendang". If you've never heard of the word "Rendang", well,  Rendang is listed in Malaysia's top 20 dishes, namely Chicken Rendang, Beef Rendang, Mutton Rendang, Lamb Rendang and etc. Being a Malaysian, I love Rendang and today's recipe that I'm about to share with you is my version of "Red Chicken Rendang". I got this recipe from my ex-colleague's mom and so far her Chicken Rendang is one of the best that I've ever tasted. 

"Rendang is a dish of meat(Chicken, Mutton, beef & etc) seasoned with blended spice mixture and braised in coconut milk till the liquid evaporate".

Note : Here are some tips to make the dish less spicy; -  Soak the dried Chillies (about 40-50 grams of dried Chillies) in hot water with one teaspoon of tamarind paste or vinegar and a pinch of salt till soften.  Place the dried chillies in a strainer and then remove the seeds and membrane of dried chillies with a pair of scissors. Rinse under running water and drain well.
