GADO GADO (MIX MIX), WITH SAUTÉED TEMPEH AND PEANUT SAUCE
Gado Gado is a classic Indonesian dish, a true "mix-mix" of vegetables, plant-based proteins, and a creamy peanut sauce. In this version, marinated and pan-fried tempeh adds a tasty and natural protein component, perfectly balanced by the freshness of the vegetables and the sweetness of the coconut milk.
It's a nutritious, gluten-free, egg-free dish (if you use tofu), and can be customized to suit the season. Excellent served with corn chips or crispy puffed rice.
