Flour, for dusting

2 tbsp oil

1 onion, sliced

4 garlic cloves, crushed

1 can coconut cream (400ml)

Preheat oven to 160°C.
Pat beef cheeks dry, then toss in a light dusting of flour. Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a cast iron pot over high heat and sear beef cheeks on all sides until deeply browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add the remaining oil, sauté onion and garlic until softened.

Serve over rice, scattered with coriander and toasted cashews.
