Nasi Goreng.

Makes: 6 servings
Active Time: Total Time: 

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 4 small shallots, peeled
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons whole almonds
  • 2 small chile peppers, seeded and diced
  • 2 tablespoons peanut or canola oil, divided
  • 2 cups finely chopped or shredded vegetables, such as yellow bell pepper, cabbage and broccoli
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons kecap manis, (see Ingredient Note)
  • 4 cups cooked and cooled brown rice
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 1 small cucumber, sliced

PREPARATION

  1. Generously coat a wok or large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, lifting the edges so uncooked egg flows underneath, until mostly set, 1 to 2 minutes. Slide out of the pan onto a clean cutting board. When cool enough to handle, cut into thin strips.
  2. Place shallots, garlic, almonds and chiles in a food processor. Process to a thick paste. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in the wok (or pan) over medium-high heat. Add the paste and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
  3. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add vegetables and cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the shallot paste, soy sauce, kecap manis and rice and stir until combined and heated through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the Nasi Goreng to a platter. Top with the strips of egg and scallions. Arrange tomato and cucumber slices around the edges.

TIPS & NOTES

  • Ingredient note: Kecap manis is a thick, palm sugar-sweetened soy sauce. It's used as a flavoring, marinade or condiment in Indonesian cooking. Find it in Asian food markets or online at importfood.com. To substitute for kecap manis, whisk 1 part molasses with 1 part reduced-sodium soy sauce.
