Aceh Pidie Tipical Long Bean Recipe

_{Simple dishes are often traditional fare in some regions. This includes the dish I prepared this time, which was cooked in a simple manner and then seasoned with special spices unique to the region.}

Gongseng coconut is one of Aceh's signature spices that is a must when preparing traditional dishes. Usually, gongseng coconut is added to curry spices or non-vegan dishes. It is used in spiced dishes such as meat, chicken, duck, and many other types of dishes.

This time, however, roasted coconut is prepared in a vegetable dish. And this is the first time I've tried it myself at home. Usually, I enjoy this dish when I visit my parents' hometown.
