Enak!

In a world teeming with diverse cultures and hidden gems, the spirit of adventure calls us to step outside our comfort zones and immerse ourselves in the rich tapestry of life beyond our familiar surroundings. Work brought me to Indonesia, the largest archipelago in the world, home of the Komodo dragon, fiery volcanoes, and the delicious Nasi Goreng. This fried rice dish, mixed with vegetables, chicken, or seafood, gets its real kick from authentic Indonesian seasonings that make it truly mouth-watering!

I am not fond of spicy food, but I can tolerate chili oil and a little spice on my fried chicken and noodles. When we arrived in Ciamis, West Java, my taste buds were welcomed by sambal. It is an Indonesian chili sauce or paste made from various chili peppers, which grow abundantly almost everywhere in Indonesia. Unlike the usual chili oil or chili garlic in olive oil found in our kitchens, sambal includes ingredients like shrimp paste, garlic, galangal, lemongrass, ginger, scallions, palm sugar, shallots, and lime juice. The chili peppers are ground together using a mortar and pestle. It is best eaten with rice and makes eating beef satay and Sundanese native fried chicken gastronomically fun!
