Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 2 cooked chicken shredded.
- 4 tablespoons cooking oil
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 3 tablespoons Sweet soy sauce
Spice paste
- 1 onion.
- 3 cloves Garlic.
- 4 fresh chilies.
- ½ teaspoon of dried shrimp paste terasi
- 1 teaspoon of salt.
Optional
- 4 eggs.
- 1 spring onion sliced.
- A handful of fried onions.
- prawn crackers kerupuk
Instructions
- Using a pestle and mortar or a food processor, grind the spice paste ingredients into a paste. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a wok on high heat and fry the spice paste until it releases a delicious aroma.
- Add the shredded chicken and ground pepper to the spice paste. Stir fry at medium-high heat until the chicken is covered with the spice, and it is cooked through.
- Add the rice to the chicken and break any lumps and clumps in the rice. Toss and stir.
- Drizzle the sweet soy sauce over the rice. Toss the rice until the spice and soy sauce are evenly distributed, and cover the rice.
- Check the taste. Add the salt to your liking, if needed. Keep cooking until the rice is cooked through and piping hot. Set aside.
- Fry the eggs individually or cook them into omelets. If you do the latter, you can slice the omelets.
- Put the fried eggs or omelet slices on the fried rice when serving. Sprinkle the fried onion and spring onion slices on the top. Enjoy your nasi goreng ayam with kerupuk on the side.
Notes
- You can add more or less chilies according to your liking.
- You can use any neutral cooking oil, such as sunflower, canola, corn, or groundnut oil.
- Shrimp paste has a very strong, pungent aroma. If you are not a fan, you can omit it. Or, you can replace it with two teaspoons of fish sauce for a milder umami taste.
- If you can not get Indonesian sweet soy sauce, you can replicate it by mixing 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of tomato ketchup, and 2 tablespoons of soft brown sugar.
