Breakfast with heavy menu: sambal terasi!

I always miss my mom's sambal. Hers is yummy. Combined with hot white rice and some side dish like traditional fried chicken and beef meat. But, eat with vegetarian side dish like soybean cake and javanese tofu is also amazing. Don't need expensive things to meal and you get pleasure, full feeling and also great adventure of spicy food ever. Actually not that spicy, as Jogjanese, we love sweet thing and our sambal recipe is combination of spicy and sweetness from brown sugar. Here, i try to share my mom's secret sambal terasi recipe just for you, my blog reader.
