Servings

Cooked Sambal:

  • 6 oz (175g) red chili pepper seeded and cut into small pieces, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon belacan toasted; Malaysian shrimp paste
  • 4 oz (125g) shallot
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 2 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons sugar or to taste, or palm sugar
  • 4 tablespoons neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sambal by grinding chilies, shallots, and toasted belacan in a mini food processor. Make sure the sambal paste is well blended and smooth. Heat up a wok with oil and “tumis” (sauté) the sambal paste.
  2. Add in onion rings into the pan and mix well.
  3. Saute the onions together with the sambal paste until translucent.
  4. Add in Hard Boiled Eggs into the pan and mix well.
  5. Transfer to a bowl and serve immediately.

Notes

  • There are two types of sambal: raw/fresh or cooked sambal.
  • Raw/fresh sambal is a tableside condiment, but cooked sambal is a flavoring paste used to create numerous sambal-laden dishes.
  • Here is my raw sambal belacan recipe.
