Eggs are one of the staple foods rich in protein, very commonly purchased by people because they are easy to process into various delicious dishes. Therefore, I always have a stock of eggs at home. Why? Because I can rely on it and it is calmer and easier to prepare side dishes as a side dish for rice. As I said, there are many creations of egg dishes that can be tried at home for side dishes. Starting from the simplest, boiled then seasoned, fried eggs, omelets and so on. All of them are very suitable to be enjoyed every day.
Talking about omelets, of course we are already familiar with them, right! But what if this time the omelet is mixed with grated coconut, the name is coconut omelet. This is a typical Acehnese recipe. The ingredients used for this menu are grated coconut and other herbs and spices as a mixture of eggs. How to make it is also quite easy, I often make this side dish at home, besides being delicious, the results are also abundant. Curious about what it tastes like? Let's just make it. Before that, prepare the ingredients below.
5 eggs (you can also add curly red chilies)
5 tablespoons grated coconut
30 cayenne peppers (to taste)
3 cloves shallots
3 cloves garlic
8-10 pieces of Asam sunti (dried starfruit)
1/2 segment turmeric
4 pieces of kaffir lime leaves
1/2 teaspoon coriander
2 finger segments lemongrass
1/2 teaspoon salt
Cooking oil for frying
First: prepare the spices. Peel the onions, peel the turmeric, remove the chili stems and roughly chop the lemongrass. Wash all the spices
Second: put all the ingredients in a blender, add the grated coconut, salt and break the eggs into it. Blend until smooth
Third: heat the oil, fry the eggs, adjust the shape to taste, I measure using 1 ladle (you can use a mold, or fry it all at once and then cut it into pieces). Fry over low heat until cooked perfectly. Let it brown slightly, turn it over and fry it again until the other side is also brown. Remove and drain. Do the same until the dough runs out
To get a thick shape and a dense texture, you can add flour to the egg mixture.

It tastes spicy, savory and has a crunchy texture and fragrant spices, making this egg dish loved by many people, wow, it's really great. very delicious, really want to add rice all the time. It's definitely very economical. This menu is no less delicious than other side dishes.
