In Indonesia Nasi goreng will be served as a main menu. So please don't be surprised, if you make a holiday in Indonesia and you come across a "Nasi Goreng" as part of a breakfast menu ;-) My husband used to laugh about it. Nasi goreng (which translates to fried rice in Indonesian and Malay) is one of my all time favourites, a real comfort dish of fried rice with a mix of meat, vegetables and seasonings. This chicken nasi goreng recipe from Lara Lee's Indonesian cookbook, Coconut & Sambal, combines rice, chicken and green beans with aromatic garlic, galangal or ginger, shallots, plus turmeric, soy sauce, kecap.
Steps to make My version of Indonesian Nasi Goreng:
- Sambal paste recipe is in my cookpad, but this can be replace with: 4 garlic and 3 shalllots, 3 chilly. Mince them all till smooth. If you used candlenut, this need to be grill for about a minute of two before grinding.
- Heat the wok in high heat, add 1 tbsp of butter and cracked the eggs, make a scramble eggs, Put asied the eggs. Now, add the rest of the butter, put the sambal (or mince shallot, garlic and chillies) and candlenuts.
- If you dont use sambal, make sure to stir fry this for at least 10 minutes, till its mix and cooked, we need to keep stirring as it is in high heat, Then put the cold rice mixed well. Put the kecap manis, soya sauce, knorr, salt and white pepper, still in very high heat, keep stirring.
- When its all mixed, taste it. The consistency of the rice should be bit dry with a bit of smokey smells.
- When you are sure all good, Add spring onion and tomatoes, mix and done. Enjoy!
- Note: if I dont used pickle, I would mix a bit thinly sliced cabbage in my nasi goreng, and slice some cucumber when serving.
I adapted my version of nasi goreng from three sites. The base for the recipe is Rasa Malaya which has the basic nasi goreng from the Indonesian island of Java. She says authentic nasi goreng is plain and simple rice stir fried with flavoring paste. Chicken, shrimp and vegetables are rarely added. This recipe used red chilies & tomatoes.
