Yesterday I made water spinach with quail eggs together with some side dishes. These are what we eat in Indonesia. I also made my own sambal/ chilli sauce.

This is Tumis Kangkung, spicy waterspinach with quail eggs. The water spinach we call Kang Kung and is imported from Thailand. It looks similar to the spinach we know but this is more crunchy and has a nice bite.

I didn't eat salted fish for a very long time. Too long actually. This is salted dried anchovy. They are very salty so you better eat it in small pieces together with rice. I prefer a different fish but this was the only available one at that time.

Homemade chilli sauce! This is called Sambal Terasi. I never thought I would make my own chilli sauce and guess what? It tastes so good! So much better than those chilli sauce from the Asian grocery shop. This chilli sauce goes very well together with the salted fish.

The last side dish is fried tempeh. Tempeh is made of soy beans. Great to dip it in the homemade sambal. Of course we eat all these with rice, otherwise it would taste salty and weird. Just think of eating only the top of your pizza or just the spaghetti sauce without the pasta. Weird right?

Yuuuuummmm!!!

This dish has so many things going on! Veggies, eggs, tempeh, salted dried fish and sambal! You just don't know where to start, where to look at! I didn't know what I wanted to put on my spoon first. I started with rice, veggies and a piece of fish, but I also wanted a piece of egg , tempeh and sambal on my spoon, but they just don't fit all on 1 spoon! :-D. I tried to put a bit of everything on my spoon but they fell off my spoon LOL!
