A New Take on Spicy: A Green Version of Sambal

 If you're fond of various versions of Sambal Olek dishes, you'll like this alternative.

What's that green stuff next to the salad? Coriander chutney--spicy and smooth. You could always go the traditional route with Sambal Olek, the spicy red sauce, but this is a flavorful alternative. 

Ingredients:

Jasmine or Basmati rice, straight from the rice cooker

Sliced cucumbers

Salad: this one is made with a balsamic vinaigrette containing a dash of sugar and olive oil, plus a little more olive oil and a salt containing green herbs (parsley, basil, dill, rosemary). But you can use another kind of salt if you. Go wild!

Two fresh eggs (I got a free-ranging we-don't-kill-the-baby-boy-chicks brand).

Fry your eggs on high heat so they get crispy around the edges. There's nothing like a mouthful of warm rice and crunchy edge of egg zinged by that coriander chutney:




Wash it all down with a glass of red wine.
