Indonesian dish with deep-fried hard-boiled eggs simmered in spicy sauce with red chile peppers, tomatoes, garlic, and shrimp paste.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, shells removed
- 6 red chile peppers, seeded and chopped
- 4 cloves garlic
- 4 medium shallots
- 2 tomatoes, quartered
- 1 teaspoon shrimp paste
- 1.5 tablespoons peanut oil
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, gently cook the eggs in 1 cup of hot oil until they turn a beautiful golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside once done.
- In a food processor, pulse the chile peppers, garlic, shallots, tomatoes, and shrimp paste into a smooth paste. Gradually pour in the peanut oil and continue blending until smooth.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the chile pepper mixture and stir in vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Gently place the fried eggs in the skillet, ensuring they are coated. Simmer on medium-low heat for about 5 minutes until fragrant.
