MY BOUQUET ON WEDNESDAY-PECEL


Today, I used ginger torch (kecombrang), green cabbage, long yard bean and carrots from my bouquet to made Javanese salad called "pecel".
Pecel is a very famous dish in Indonesia and Suriname.
All vegetables are boiled or steamed.
And we added peanut sauce as a dressing.
The sauce made from fried peanuts, palm sugar, spices, hot chilli pepper, salt and water.
The condiment of pecel are peyek or krupuk.
Peyek is  fried liquid dough that have a crispy texture.
The dough is made from rice flour, water, salt, spices, chopped Chinese chives and dried babies shrimp.
