Equipment

  • small frying pan
  • Food Processor or blender

Ingredients

  • 4 large Hard boiled eggs
  • 4 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 1 clove Garlic, chopped
  • ½ cup Onion or shallot, chopped
  • ½ large Red bell pepper, seeds and stems removed, chopped
  • 2 tsp Sambal Oelek (Sub: another chili sauce)
  • ½ cup Water
  • 1 tsp Tamarind concentrate (Sub: 1 tsp lime juice)
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Kecap Manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce)
  • 1 tsp Ginger, minced
  • Fried shallots and chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat oil in pan over medium heat. Fry hard boiled eggs on all sides until brown all over, about 5 minutes. Set aside and pour off all but 1 tbsp oil.
  • In a food processor or blender, process garlic, onion, bell pepper, and Sambal Oelek into a course paste. Add water and mix well. Pan fry mixture for 2 minutes over medium heat. Stir in tamarind, sugar, salt, ginger, and kecap manis.
  • Add eggs back in and stir. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes more. Stir to baste eggs in sauce.
  • To serve, place eggs, either cut in half or left whole, in a small bowl and pour sauce over eggs. Garnish with parsley and fried shallot flakes. Serve at room temperature.

Notes

  • Advance preparation – Prepare eggs and sauce separately and refrigerate. At serving time, reheat sauce with eggs.
