Good Morning,
After a week long of heatwave, the temperature dropped for 2 days, it was breezy, but now we are back to hot days, 31 C. Feels like Indonesia, less the humidity, but thank goodness no more heatwave. Those days of 40-45 C was crazy. Thunderstorm of no rain, just thunder and lightning and strong wind, was super scary ????
This following dish tho, I have been making them since hot days started. Yep, I have been eating them almost daily because it is so refreshing for hot days, chilled in the fridge, serve as is or with warm rice, feels and tastes so good most especially during the heatwave (didn’t serve it with warm rice but chilled and as is ????).
This veggie dish is known as Urap Sayur. It is coconuty and spicy, but you can lessen the chilies or omit them in fact – if you don’t like spiciness.
1 bunch of long beans
1/2 head of large cabbage
700 g fresh spinach
1 bag bean sprouts
1 long English Cucumber (or more, or none, so optional ?)
1 bag unsweetened dessicated coconut
1 small onion
5 garlic
5-8 red bird eye chilies (1 if you don’t like spicy but still wants to get a little taste, or none is fine too)
1/2 tsp lesser galangal powder (kencur)
Salt and sugar to taste
Steps in the vid! ❤
