Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large pot over medium-high. Brown beef in batches, 2 min per batch, then set aside.
Step 2
In the same pot, cook shallots and garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in turmeric.
Step 3
Return beef to pot. Add soy sauce and beef broth, then bring to a simmer. Cook 10 minutes until beef is tender.

While soup simmers, soft-boil the duck eggs in a small pot of water, 6–7 minutes for runny yolks.

Taste soup and season with salt and pepper. Divide rice between two deep bowls.
Step 6
Ladle soup over rice, top with halved duck egg, krupuk, bean sprouts, sambal, and a lime wedge. Serve hot.
