Cooking Cassava Leaf Curry with Salted Anchovies

Hello, today I made cassava leaf vegetable curry with an anchovy mixture. This anchovy is made from small sea fish that are dried in the sun, usually some are very salty and some have no taste or are bland. Usually we use this salted fish as a mixture in cooking vegetables or stir-fry. Apart from anchovies, we also cook cassava leaves because these leaves are very delicious when we cook them. I don't know if where our friends live there, you consume cassava leaves or sweet potato leaves. In Indonesia, cassava leaves and sweet potato leaves are used as food, usually cooked with coconut milk or vegetables. Goulash or to eat with chili sauce is also very delicious.

Some ingredients we need to cook cassava leaf curry:
♡ 6 red onions
♡ 4 cloves of garlic
♡ 7 red chilies
♡ 5 spicy cayenne pepper
♡ 5 cm turmeric
♡ 2 candlenuts
♡ 1 Tbsp coriander
♡ 1 tsp salt
♡ ½ tsp flavoring

♡ 1 thumb galangal
♡ 4 pieces of lime leaves
♡ 2 bay leaves
