Today I made chicken rendang. The original plan was to cook beef rendang but since I only had chicken, I ended up cooking chicken rendang
Cooking chicken rendang is not much different from making beef rendang. Both of these dishes are equally delicious.
Before cooking we must prepare the following ingredients:
- 1 chicken
- 12 glasses of coconut milk
- 1 lemongrass stalk
- 2 lime leaves
- Tamarind
- 10 red onions
- 6 cloves of garlic
- 2 candlenuts
- galangal
- Ginger
- Turmeric
- 250 grams of red chili
- Salt
- Sugar
How to cook it as follows:
- Chicken cut into pieces according your taste
- Red onion, garlic, candlenut, galangal, ginger, turmeric and red chili are all mashed
- Heat the oil and fry the spices that have been mashed along with the lemongrass and lime leaves
- Add coconut milk let it boil. Add 3 tablespoons of tamarind water
- Add chicken and stir.
- When the water is reduced add salt and sugar
- Cook until the coconut milk dries up
Chicken rendang is ready to eat. More delicious if eaten with hot rice.
