i love indonesian food. i spent some time there in my early 20s and got quite obsessed. chicken satay skewers with chilli and peanut sauces from a street cart cooked over coconut husks and served with slices of coconut rice cut from a roll of banana leaf. nothing better.
i do like ottolenghi but he uses so many ingredients... it just seems so faffy and I can't be arsed. my cobbled together vesion of gado gado is:
steamed rice.
steamed cabbage.
steamed green beans.
boiled carrots.
quartered tomato.
quartered boiled eggs.
and peanut sauce made from:
crunchy peanut butter and sweet soy (ketchap manis) heated in a little pan with some water to thin it out a bit.
sambal from a jar on the side and add crushed peanuts or cashews, corriander and a squeeze of lime if you're feeling extravagent.
