Zubereitung

1. 1

   Add one tablespoon of the kecap manis, 1 clove minced garlic and a little salt and pepper to the chicken. Mix well.Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 2 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through, then remove and set aside

2. 2

   In the same pan, add the remaining oil, onion, 2 cloves minced garlic and chillies and sauté until the onion is soft and lightly golden.

3. 3

   Add the shrimp paste and cook for another 30 seconds, pressing it into the pan to release its flavour. Move the onion mix to one side of the pan and add the beaten egg. Scramble it and mix with the other ingredients.

4. 4

   Return the chicken to the pan. Add the cold rice and break up any clumps, tossing well to coat in the аromatics. Pour in the kecap manis and soy sauce then stir-fry on high heat until the rice is evenly coated and slightly caramelised.

5. 5

   Season with salt and pepper to taste. In a separate pan, fry the eggs until the edges are crispy and the yolks are still runny.

6. 6

   Serve the nasi goreng hot, topped with a fried egg, spring onions, fried shallots and a squeeze of fresh lime juice, with some chopped tomato and cucumber on the side.
