Like most Indonesian dishes this is flavorful and spicy dish- You may make it as hot or mild as you like by adding more or less chili.. Attractive to serve. Lovely for a luncheon or part of your dinner meal. The original recipe is from The complete Asian Cookbook By Charmaine Solomon- There are some minor changes by me.
