I’ve lived in Asia for many years, and love a good Rendang. You can get them in Australia too, but my brother often enjoys making his own and has spent a lot time tweaking his.
His base recipe is here.
Now I’ve never eaten his. Just seen the photos. My favourites in Jakarta are:
- Sari Indah
- Pagi Sore
- Sederhana
Pro tip – go to the trouble of finding white pepper. It makes a difference!
Service with rice.
