Bak Kwa Sambal Nasi Goreng | Jerky Sambal Fried Rice Bak Kwa Sambal Nasi Goreng | Jerky Sambal Fried Rice
I seem to be in a fried rice frenzy these days. Largely due to the influence of Uncle Roger storming thru social media. Haiya! If you do not know who Uncle Roger is, you are clearly missing out a lot. Like a lot! Secondly, after my kimchi fried rice, I began falling in love with fried rice even tho I am not a fan of rice. Yes, I am saying that out loud. I am considered a black sheep for disliking rice in my family, cos dogma has it that Asians need to have rice in their diet.After Lunar New Year, we will tend to have loads of bak kwa remaining. My grandma just whipped up this fried rice one day, using bak kwa leftovers and a very unique sauce. Her secret ingredient is the black fermented shrimp paste. It has that sweet umami bomb that elevates the whole dish. You can of cos use bacon or even Prosciutto. If you want your bacon or Prosciutto to be crispy, you can precook them before stir-frying into the fried rice. In closing, I hope you will give this recipe a try and I hope Uncle Roger will approve.

Sambal Goreng Kentang Tempe (Indonesian Potato and Tempeh in Spicy Chili Sauce) Sambal Goreng Kentang Tempe (Indonesian Potato and Tempeh in Spicy Chili Sauce)
‘Sambal Goreng’ is a traditional Indonesian dish which is made from chili peppers cooked with some other ingredients such as potatoes, tempeh, tofu, eggplants, green beans, etc. It’s quite different from ‘Sambal’ which refers to Indonesian chili sauce/paste which typically is made from a mixture of chili peppers with secondary ingredients such as shrimp paste, coconut sugar, lime juice, etc. and served as condiments. It’s savory, slightly sweet, and of course it’s spicy 🥵 Best served over warm white rice 🍚 By the way, you can always omit the ‘stinky beans’ part as they are really stinky. It may cause your breath to smell for a day or two 😁😅😂If you like my recipes, please follow me on my Instagram @jenscookingdiary @jenscookdineandtravel 🙏🏻😊😘 jenscookingdiary -

Coconut Sambal with Mature Tempeh (SAMBAL JENGGOT) Coconut Sambal with Mature Tempeh (SAMBAL JENGGOT)
The menu is common in Java, especially around the slopes of Mount Sindoro, Teanggung - Central Java. It is said that this dish is a favorite cuisine including in the Nobles in the area of Yogyakarta and Central Java. But not only on the island of Java, it turns out this sauce is also known in Padang - even if only in a few places. The name is strange, is it not? It's named “sambal jenggot (beard beard)” not because the main ingredient is a "beard" or creators have beards, but because the ingredient shredded coconut looks like a beard.For maximum results, you should grate the coconut manually so the original aroma is not lost. So the chili does not go bad, preferably steam the coconut before or after all the other mixed materials are steamed. But the truth is most comfortable if using raw coconut, let alone distinguish.Spicy this one is almost similar to chili ointment, namely how to enjoy it with warm rice and vegetables. Bobor bayam (spinach coconut milk) or sauteed papaya is good to accompany. "Beard Sambal" can also be enjoyed with boiled vegetables (as chili sauce), along with salted fish and white rice warm. Or can also be enjoyed with another menu according to taste. The marinade is actually more like chili paste, but with a touch of flavor from kencur (Kaempferia galanga L.).For friends of Java, must know the name of tempe Semangit. But for friends from outside Java, you may still not know. Tempe Semangit is tempeh fermented for a longer period; or in terms of Java it's called "Tempe Kedalon" (mature tempeh). Tempeh has been through a few days (1-3 days) of time that should be consumed, with characteristic brownish color and aroma has. After tempeh Semangit, the next stage is tempeh Bosok (foul tempeh) but it can still be used - with a super aroma... EXOTIC Dapoer-Indonesia @ us -
