Sambal Goreng Udang

Today I decided to cook Nasi Sambal Goreng! That's white rice with sambal goreng, serunding (spicy shredded coconuts) with assorted accompaniments like fried chicken, bagedil (potato patties), paru goreng (fried lungs) & sambal.

Here's a simple recipe for sambal goreng with prawns. 

Blend the following ingredients and sauté until fragrant.

3 onions

2 garlic 

2 inches lengkuas

1 inch ginger

10 stalks dried chilli, soaked (more if you want your sambal goreng really spicy)

1 inch 2cm belachan 

3 stalks chilli, sliced

2 lemongrass root, bruised 

Once the spices are "crispy", add sliced chilli and lemongrass.

1 teaspoon tamarind mixed with water

1 cup water

2 teaspoon salt or to taste

1 tablespoon sugar

100ml coconut cream

200g prawns

Add the liquid ingredients and simmer for a bit before adding prawns. 

Pre-fry tempe and tofu with a bit of salt.

I also love adding sliced French beans 

Tempe 2 blocks , diced

Tofu 5 small blocks, diced

French beans 

Once prawns are cooked, add in the tofu & tempe and lastly the French beans.
