Sambal Goreng, literally translated as Fried Chilli Paste, is a popular Malay dish consisting of stir-fried tofu, tempe and long beans in a fragrant, spicy sauce.
It’s a staple Malay dish, and one of my all-time favourite. My Mom makes the best one, but she also toils in the kitchen. I'm lazier, so I experimented with the recipe that is Mom-approved.
If you want to be even more authentic and replicate my Mom's recipe, add
tamarind, belachan, a splash of coconut cream and beef chunks in the mix. You also have to deep fry every. Single. Component. Instead of just the tofu and tempe for this recipe.
