Today is sambal making day. I'm experimenting really. I am making two variations of sambal.
Sambal 1 (Recipe)
15 fresh chillies
three limes
a piece of belacan (dried shrimp paste cake)
salt and sugar
Put the cut chillies into the blender. Add a cupful of water with squeezed lime juice and a spoonful of sugar and salt and blend at low speed.
Meanwhile toast a piece of belacan in the frying pan. Pour the blended mixture (not too fine) into the pan with the belacan and fry till the spicy condiment looks and smells nice.
No cooking oil was used for the sambal.
Here are the two sambal that I made today. In case you're wondering where's the recipe for Sambal 2 where dried chillies, garlic, ginger and onions were some of the ingredients... errr, I think that one didn't turn out well.
At least one sambal was a success. Yes!
