Indonesian Fried Rice (Nasi Goreng)

This is one of known Indonesian foods which you may find in Indonesian restaurant worldwide. In Indonesia there are lot of food stalls that have this fried rice in their menus. As for me, fried rice sold at street vendor is the best.

Ingredients:
- 2 plates of steam rice, keep it in fridge for one night to make it dry
- 100gr lean meat/beef/chicken, boil in water and shred it into small pieces
- 2 beef/chicken sausage/hotdog, cut into small pieces
- 8 beef balls, cut into 4 pieces each
- 2 egg
- 2 green onion, wash and chop thinly
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 5 cloves of small red onion
- 5 red chili, you may add more chili if you like spicy
- 1 tsp shrimp paste
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1 Tbsp fish sauce
- 1 Tbsp sweet soy sauce
- salt
- oil

In a pan scramble the egg with a little bit of oil until dry. Put it aside. In a blender, blend garlic, onion, chili and shrimp paste until smooth. Then saute it with oil in a big nonstick frying pan. Add the meat, beef balls and sausage and continue to fry for 3minutes. Add tomato paste, fish sauce and sweet soy sauce. Add steam rice and mix it well. Adjust the taste with salt and sweet soy sauce. At last sprinkle chopped green onion and scrambled egg. Serve while hot. Garnish it with cut fresh cucumber and/or tomato and/or lettuce.

Note: Basically you can use any kind of meat for fried rice and you may add mixed vegetable (corn, carrot, peas) to it too.
