If there's one condiment that best represents the multi-faceted and multi-cultural Malaysia - it's sambal!
One nation, many sambals
There are many types of sambal. There are sambal belacan, sambal tumis, sambal hijau, and the many derivations.
It is as ubiquitous and as crucial in accompanying many local dishes. Find it served with nasi lemak, mee goreng, nasi ayam, roti canai and many other Malaysian food.
So what better way to celebrate Hari Kemerdekaan than a sambal recipe?
Sambal kicap
Sambal belacan
Sambal petai
Sambal ijo belacan
Sambal kicap - easy and delicious
So here's our simple sambal kicap recipe, which we made to accompany our tauhu begedil.
It's really easy! All we need to do is fry the aromatics, and blend 'em with kicap manis and seasoning.
Thick, sweet, savoury and mildly spicy - it's a superb accompaniment to our crispy, savoury tauhu begedil or soto ayam.
Besides that, sambal kicap is also usually eaten with sour mangoes, goreng pisang and soto.
Check out these recipes to enjoy with sambal kicap.
Our sambal is mildly spicy - feel free to add more cili padi for more kick!
It is important to fry the aromatics first to release the fragrance and taste.
We love adding fried shallots to our sambal kicap - for the added umami and caramelised flavour.
Also, a squeeze of calamansi juice at the end gives it a bit of tang.
As always, taste and adjust to your preference. This particular kicap manis brand worked well for our recipe - but measurements will differ based on what you use.
