Sarawakian Local Delights : Sambal Chilli Tempe

No automatic alt text available.

Tempe is perhaps a new food item introduced by the Indonesians to Sarawak. However many people like it very much especially when it is cooked as a sambal with ikan bilis.

Onions are sliced and stirred fried. Then a chilli paste is added . When almost caramalized, the fried tempe and fried ikan bilis are added to the sauce. If the sauce is too dry, some vinegar and sugar can be added, to taste.

This is a simple dish. but it takes time to deep fry the tempe slices and the ikan bilis.

Enjoy!!
