Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare the onion, garlic, and ginger.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper, then dust with flour. Sear for about 5 minutes on each side.
  3. Add the beef broth, coconut milk, soy sauce, red curry paste, ginger, garlic, sugar, and fish sauce to the pot. Stir and allow to meld for about 2 minutes.
  4. Return the seared roast to the pot, cover, and place in the preheated oven. Braise for 2 hours until tender.
  5. Remove from oven, shred the beef with two forks, and return it to the broth.
  6. Stir in the sliced onions and optional bell peppers. Let rest uncovered for about 5 minutes.
  7. Serve the beef and broth mixture over rice or noodles, garnishing with fresh herbs if desired.
