Indonesian Pork

Wed, 05 Sep 2001 09:21:21 -0400

I'm not sure where I found this recipe, but it sounded so weird to me at the time, I just had to try it. I do alot of outdoor cooking on the grill. I'm lucky enough to have a Big Green Egg out on my deck to cook on. It is a ceramic barbecue with a fire brick interior and uses charcoal. You can use a gas grill, too... just be sure to try this recipe. You will be pleasantly surprise -- posted by luvmybge

Indonesian Serundeng (Crisp Spiced Coconut with peanuts)

Sun, 23 Jun 2002 19:21:24 -0400

This is great as a nibble or use over a rice or noodle dish. This is only a small amount but I recommend that if you want larger amounts repeat this recipe several times it does not allow itself to triple (the spices get out of whack) -- posted by Bergy

Sate Babi (Or Ayam)

Fri, 20 Jun 2003 20:00:26 -0400

This is what we call a sweet sate and the chili paste that I add does not really belong in this recipe. Can be made with chicken breasts and then it is called Sate Ayam. Here it usually served with a ketjap peanut sauce and prawn crackers, it can be an appetizer, snack or a side dish when part of an Indonesian rijsttafel. If you cannot get the sweet soy sauce, use regular and add some brown sugar. Marinating time is not included. -- posted by Pets'R'us

Mango-Avocado Salsa

Tue, 24 Jun 2003 20:01:02 -0400

This is an easy tropical dish that is full of flavor! I like to serve it with chips, or as a side dish. It would be easy to try slightly different versions by adding lime juice, ginger, pineapple, or jalapenos, depending on your personal taste. If you have any other suggestions, I would love to hear them! Thanks! -- posted by Calla Lily

A great appetizer for parties. You can keep these warm in a small crockpot. Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated, then easily reheated just before serving. -- posted by Sue L

Indonesian Chicken

Fri, 27 Feb 2004 20:00:23 -0500

Don't get on my case if this isn't authentically Indonesian, okay? When I found the recipe, it was called Indonesian Chicken, and, not being Indonesian or knowing anyone from Indonesia, I can neither confirm nor deny that this is, indeed, Indonesian Chicken. It is, however, definitely a recipe for chicken, and a mighty tasty one at that. The peanut sauce is also useful to put on things that you don't want to serve naked, such as noodles, rice, or steamed veggies. -- posted by ThatBobbieGirl

Sesame Eggplant (Aubergine) Salad

Tue, 12 Oct 2004 20:00:21 -0400

This intriguing salad is a great addition to any Asian or oriental meal. The dressing is sooooooo gooood that I'm having all the flavors in my mouth right now. This dressing would be great over noodles! Heck the dressing is so good I have also used to it marinate other vegetables. -- posted by ameatlanta

Chicken Satay (Saté)

Fri, 29 Apr 2005 12:13:30 -0400

Southeast Asian marinated and skewered meat with a spicy, mildly sweet peanut sauce. One of America's favorite dishes at Thai restaurants, though originally Indonisian rather than Thai. May be prepared with chicken, pork, beef sirloin or top round, or lamb shoulder. This recipe serves 6 for dinner or 18 as an appetizer. -- posted by littleturtle

Chicken Skewers With Satay Sauce

Tue, 04 Apr 2006 15:43:22 -0400

I've been having cravings for chicken satay, and saw this recipe in an issue of 'Delicious' magazine. Passive cooking time is the time it takes to marinade the skewers. -- posted by Ppaperdoll

Wed, 27 Sep 2006 18:45:35 -0400

After much searching...I found a yummy Indonesian recipe that is not already posted here at Zaar. It looks very uncomplicated, not TOO exotic & delicious. If you make this before me (next week), please let me know what you think. This particular version was on somebody's blog...most of the other versions I found hadn't been translated! -- posted by Elmotoo

Indonesian Potato Croquettes- (Kroket Kentang)

This recipe came from my mother-in-law who is Indonesian. My kids who love regular mashed potatoes really like this too. I cook alot of Indonesian food in our home and this is one of our favorites. -- posted by Mira38305

Spicy Indonesian Pork Satay (Or Chicken)

Fri, 09 Mar 2007 15:06:53 -0500

One teaspoon of dried red pepper flakes with give you a mild heat flavor for more spice then increase the pepper flakes. Plan ahead the pork needs to marinade 8-24 hours. Make certain to soak the wooden skewers a minimum of 30 minutes before threading and grilling. Serve with favorite dipping sauce or you can use whatever leftover marinade that you have after basting the satay as a dipping sauce if desired. Make certain to use only low-sodium soy sauce for this recipe, also if you are using peanuts in place of peanut butter they must be unsalted. The recipe may be doubled but divided into two separate recipes and the pork marinated in two separate bowls. This will work well on on an indoor grill or oven broiler heat. For dipping sauce see recipe#143558 -- posted by KITTENCAL

Authentic Balinese Indonesian Satay Chicken

Sat, 08 Dec 2007 02:15:01 -0500

This is amazing! I got this recipe from a lady I met on my honeymoon in Bali. It's Indonesian home cooking so it's more authentic than the Satay you could try in the restaurants. To make this dish quicker to prepare, you could use unsalted peanut butter instead of roasting and peeling the peanuts. Oh and if you don't like your food spicy, use only 1 chilie or omit them all together. Enjoy! -- posted by Natalia #3

Coconut Shrimp With Sweet Soy and Chili Dipping Sauce

Fri, 09 May 2008 13:46:56 -0400

The best recipe I have found for coconut shrimp. The dipping sauce is a perfect Indonesian- inspired condiment. Ketchup manis is a sweet indonesian sauce. You can substitute 3 Tbs. soy sauce mixed with 1 Tbs. brown sugar if you can't find ketchup manis in your local asian food store. -- posted by Kathy!!

Indonesian Vegetable Sour Soup (Sayur Asam)

Fri, 19 Dec 2008 00:29:50 -0500

This soup (Sayur Asam) is one of the most popular soup in Indonesia, particularly in East and Mid Java. Easy to cook and can be enjoyed with any complements, such fried chicken, fried tempe, fried tofu, steamed rice and sambal. You can enjoy it in every occasion. But, usually Indonesians serve it in mid day. -- posted by tfirdaus

Risoles (Indonesian Style of Rissole)

Fri, 17 Apr 2009 17:34:37 -0400

Risoles is one of popular appetizers in Indonesia. It looks similar with spring rolls but the how to make it is a little bit different. Also the taste. In Indonesia you can easily get this snack without even bother to spend your time in the kitchen. They sell it in the market, bakery, or even along the street. The name Risoles is borrowed over from the traditional Portuguese rissole. A rissole is a small croquette, enclosed in pastry or rolled in breadcrumbs, usually baked or deep fried. It is filled with sweet or savoury ingredients, most often minced meat or fish, and is served as an entrée, dessert or side dish. -- posted by IndoFoody

The Best Indonesian Peanut Sauce

Sun, 28 Jun 2009 17:22:57 -0400

This recipe comes from the vegetarian times and is actually a vegan recipe, though I am not either of those things :-). I made this because I just LOVE peanut sauces and this is the best one I have had, not to mention how simple it was to make! I used reduced fat peanut butter and it didn't seem to affect the recipe at all. It will keep up to a week or so in the fridge and personally, I like to either toss it with noodles and chicken or serve it with chicken chunks over brown rice. I don't like things spicy and this was perfect. I also saute the chicken chunks in 1 tsp sesame oil just to enhance the flavor. It makes quite a bit of sauce, I would say it serves 6! Enjoy! -- posted by Quistis145
