Share Indonesia Food - "Sambal Oelek" from Javanes Island

Sambal Oelek from Javanese Island is very delicious. Javanese people called "Javanese Chilli Pasta" This sauces is very spicy, but i can guarantee you'll love it. Now i'll this share for you. How a make this sauces is very simple. Let's i show you, step by step:

Ingredients:
  • 25 Chillies
  • White vinegar (see how to)
  • 2 tsp Salt

How to a make:
  1. Wash the chillies, then just remove the stalks, but not the seeds.
  2. Put the whole chillies into the jar of a blender, add about 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar then blend. (Warning, don't lift the lid straight off the blender jar and look in - you could get a major hit of chilli fumes! Let it settle before opening the lid, carefully.)
  3. If the chilli paste is too thick and chunky, add a little more vinegar, then blend again: it should become a smooth paste.
  4. Then stir in the salt.
  5. Keep the finished chilli paste in a sterilised jar in the fridge, ready to use whenever chillies are needed in a recipe.
  6. This is an Indonesian style chilli paste, a great way to keep excess chillies you've harvested.

Anyway, traditional javanese people don't use blender. They use a special tool called ulekan, here's the pic is a ulekan.
