This is an old recipe from Grandma and Grandpa in Bali. Sambal matah means raw sambal, so the main ingredients are not cooked.

Steps

15 minutes
  1. 1

    Thinly slice the shallots, lemongrass (white part only), curly red chilies, and bird's eye chilies, and place them in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Roast the shrimp paste until slightly soft, then add it to the same bowl as step 1. Mix the ingredients by hand, kneading slightly. Use gloves if needed.

  3. 3

    Thinly slice the kaffir lime leaves (chiffonade) and add them to the bowl. Continue kneading the sambal, being careful not to crush the shallots and chilies.

  4. 4

    Add salt, sugar, and lime juice to taste, and mix with the sambal.

  5. 5

    Finally, warm the coconut oil (do not overheat) and pour it over the sambal, then mix. The coconut oil enhances the flavor of the sambal matah.

  6. 6

    Taste it. If it's just right, serve.
