Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the beef pieces and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are lightly browned on the outside.
Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the carrot slices and diced potato to the pot. Stir well.
Season the curry with fish sauce and brown sugar. Stir to combine and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
