Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the massaman curry paste and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the beef chuck to the pot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring to coat the beef with the curry paste.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add the cinnamon sticks, cardamom pods, and tamarind paste. Stir to combine.
Add the potatoes to the pot. Cover and simmer on low heat for 60 minutes, or until the beef and potatoes are tender.
Stir in the peanuts and season with salt and sugar to taste. Continue to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
While the curry simmers, rinse the basmati rice under cold water. In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rice and a pinch of salt. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
Serve the Massaman Curry Beef hot with a side of steamed basmati rice.
