Telur Sambalado 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Ingredients

• 12 –15 boiled eggs
• Oil for frying
• 3 –5 kaffir lime leaves (daun jeruk)
• 8 –10 red chilies
• 4 shallots
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tomato
• 1 tsp salt
• 1-2 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp chicken stock (optional)
• 1 tbsp kecap manis (soy sauce) optional
• 1 little water

Steps

1. Boil eggs until hard, peel and set aside.
2. Lightly fry until the surface is a bit golden (like yours 👌). Set aside.
3. Blend chilies, shallots, garlic, and tomato (not too smooth, better a bit chunky like yours).
4. Heat oil, sauté the sambal until fragrant and thick. You’ll see the oil separating, that’s the key
5. Toss in kaffir lime leaves for that fresh aroma.
6. Add salt, sugar, and chicken stock. Adjust taste (should be spicy, a bit sweet, and savory).
7. Add eggs and gently coat with the sambal. Add a little water if needed
8. Cook until the sauce thickens and sticks to the eggs beautifully.
