‘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 🙏🏻😊😘

Fried sambal with shrimp and petai (Parkia speciosa) is a delicious dish for the daily menu or a special day. I served the following recipe for a dear family. Adding coconut milk in this dish produces a savory flavor and is delicious, ideal when eaten with hot rice.One dish that is certainly tempting, is not inferior to other shrimp recipes such as : fried shrimp with butter, and crispy fried shrimp. Fried dry prawns dry and the bite of spicy seasoned chili, you will certainly feel it on the tongue (the amount of chili can be adjusted). What is special is that this shrimp dish will be more cool with extra crispy petai beans - will make a side dish that's more fun.

This is a Manado (East Indonesian) kind of food. Made from smoked ikan roa (ballyhoo) with sambal bawang (chilli with onion). Pan fried then sauteed with the chilli.

This is a condiment that we always keep in the refrigerator at my house.Any remaining seeds will result in a poor texture, and will make the sambal very spicy. Be sure to carefully filter them out.

We Indonesians love our sambal. There are plenty varieties. Some a bit sour, some a bit bitter, some a bit sweet, but most Indonesians love spicy sambal. My partner and my kids love sambal, but we can't stand too spicy food. So I always remove the seeds from the chili. If you like spicier sambal, do not remove the seeds.Kecombrang or honje is also known as torch ginger. It is the young flower part. If you can't find it, you can replace it with a bit of mint. Kecombrang tastes a bit sour and minty. It also has a fragrant smell.

#mycookbookThe fastest and easiest way to enjoy ‘tempe’ is season it with ground garlic, salt, white pepper powder, and a little water, deep fry the seasoned tempe until golden brown, and then eat it with Indonesian shrimp paste chili sauce.This recipe is basically the same but I added some fried anchovies and Thai basil leaves to add the flavor for the dish.If you like my recipes, please follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary for the Indonesian recipes or @jenscookdineandtravel for the English recipes 🙏🏻😊😘

"Sweet and spicy with a hint of sour... Sambal Tumis is a chili paste that's also a bedrock of culture. It is Ground Zero and the starting point to understand all regional flavors.""Sambal Tumis can be broken down into a chili condiment (the 'Sambal' part) that is fried until fragrant (the 'Tumis' part)."Best eaten alongside a plate of aromatic coconut rice like Malaysian Nasi Lemak or with a good curried vegetable stew like Indonesian Sayur Lodeh.For this health-conscious version, we use mineral-rich date sugar and palm sugar in place of normal white sugar as the main sweetening agents. Antibacterial honey is also added as a mild preservative.
