PersatuanindoNEWS.com - For lovers of West Javanese cuisine, Spicy "Nasi Liwet" with Fried Medan Anchovies and Stink Beans can be a delightful choice for a meal. With easily accessible ingredients and simple steps, this dish can be prepared at home.

In this recipe, you will need 500 grams of rice, sufficient water, 5 cloves of thinly sliced shallots, 5 cloves of thinly sliced garlic, 2 stalks of lemongrass bruised, 3 bay leaves, 5 red bird's eye chilies, 1 teaspoon of salt, 50 grams of fried Medan anchovies, and 2 sections of fried stink beans.

Firstly, wash the rice thoroughly and place it in a "panci liwet" (a traditional Javanese cooking pot). Pour water into the pot until it reaches the level of your first knuckle. Next, add the shallots, garlic, bay leaves, lemongrass, and salt. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed in the rice.

The next step is to arrange the red bird's eye chilies on top. Then, cover the "panci liwet" and cook over low heat until the water has evaporated and the rice is cooked. Using low heat is crucial to prevent the bottom of the rice from burning and forming a crust.

Before removing it from the heat, add the fried Medan anchovies and stink beans to the pot. Cook the "nasi liwet" for an additional 7 minutes to allow the flavors and aromas of the anchovies and stink beans to infuse into the rice.

Once cooked, the spicy "Nasi Liwet" with fried Medan anchovies and stink beans is ready to be served. This dish can be enjoyed as a main course or paired with other side dishes. The deliciousness of this "nasi liwet" is guaranteed to tantalize your taste buds.

For those who do not have a "panci liwet," a rice cooker can be used by following the usual rice cooking method. However, ensure that the water-to-rice ratio and the proportions of the other ingredients are in accordance with the recipe.

Enjoy your culinary adventure and savor the delightful flavors of Spicy "Nasi Liwet" with Fried Medan Anchovies and Stink Beans!
