Questions about Nasi goreng
How do you make nasi goreng without the rice going soggy?
Use rice cooked the day before, chilled and broken up so the grains are separate. Fry it in a very hot wok in small batches, letting it sit briefly between stirs so it gets a little toasted rather than steaming.
What gives nasi goreng its characteristic flavour?
Garlic, shallot, chilli and kecap manis—a sweet Indonesian soy sauce—are common flavourings; shrimp paste adds a savoury depth in many versions. Add the kecap manis around the edge of the hot wok so it sizzles and coats the rice.
What do you serve with nasi goreng?
A fried egg, cucumber slices and prawn crackers are familiar accompaniments. You can also serve it with sliced tomato or a squeeze of lime to balance the sweet, savoury rice.
How should you store leftover nasi goreng?
Cool it quickly, ideally within an hour, then cover and refrigerate. Eat it within 24 hours and reheat it only once, until steaming hot throughout.
Can you make nasi goreng without kecap manis?
Mix ordinary soy sauce with a little brown sugar or treacle for a quick substitute; it will be less thick and caramel-like than kecap manis. Add it sparingly and taste before adding more.
Does nasi goreng with egg have more protein than nasi goreng?
Nasi goreng with egg has 4.4 g of protein per 100 g; nasi goreng has 7.9 g per 100 g.
