Nasi Goreng – Indonesian Fried Rice

Pane-bistecca
Nasi Goreng – Indonesian fried rice, the way I cook it. Nasi Goreng translates as fried rice. It mainly consists of rice with a little meat and onions as a vegetable side dish. What distinguishes this dish from other fried rice dishes is the sauce made from kecap manis, a sweet soy sauce that turns the rice dark brown and caramelizes during cooking.

It is typically served with a fried egg and a side dish of fresh cucumber and tomato. Shrimp Chips are also a great accompaniment. It is a complete meal and does not need any other side dishes.

Just like fried rice for the Chinese and Bolognese sauce for the Italians, every family has its own recipe that has been passed down through generations.

This recipe is also part in Volkermampft’s culinary world tour which is traveling to Indonesia this month.
