Quick tip: Make the sambal yourself. I've tried making it with sambal oelek but the taste is not right at all. It's more of a condiment. It made the weirdest nasi goreng i've ever had. Just make a paste out of red chilis, shallots and garlic, add some salt and brown sugar (+ lemongrass if you have it). That sambal will give the right type of taste and spice to nasi goreng.
I'm Indonesian and you make your nasi goreng in the authentic way. I really love your channel. And you pronounce every indonesian word exactly how they should be pronounce. Maybe you should try to make another indonesian recipes like "gado-gado".
I just cooked this dish earlier. Quick tip: if you cant get a hold of shrimp paste, or if you just dont like the funky smell of it, you can use a shrimp broth cube instead. I use the Knorr brand. It's sooo good. gives u that umami flavor just as well.
That Knorr shrimp broth cube is so good. Unfortunately it's not sold in Indonesia albeit being produced in the Philippines. Quite bizarre that you could easily get it in London but not Jakarta? 😂
I'm from the Netherlands, and this dish is so common here too. Love it. When I was a child, I only knew ketjap as a soy sauce. I had not seen any other soy sauces yet.You should make Indosian penaut sauce !
Listen here Pai, I tried this Nasi Goreng and it is FANTASTIC 😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥!!! It’s so good! I added bacon, cabbage, shredded carrots sweet peas topped with cucumber, fresh lemon and micro herbs to mine. This is elite honestly. Thank you my whole family LOVES this.!
Wow. I think you're the first non Indonesian i see on youtube who make pretty authentic Nasi Goreng. Im impressed. 👍 special thumbs up for your presentation. That's how it is normally served at the restaurants. You even included fried shallots. Kerupuk yes, kecap manis yes, terasi yessssss. My must have toppings: 1. Fried egg. 2. Cucumber.
hy sweet lady. i am from Suriname. lots of indo people live here. i love to cook nasigoreng just like the one you made. you can add wet or dried shrimps too. the topping is georges. many thanks♡ greetings.
Try cooking the krupuk in the microwave :P I am Indonesian and my dad used to do this all the time since i was a kid. IT WORKS!!!! just put a few at a time for like 10 to 15 seconds. You will see... if it needs more time. The uncooked part will appear more transparent than the cooked one
I love Thai food too. I gained some kilos when I was back from my visit to Thailand a long time ago because I kept on earing and ate all on my plates. The taste of Indonesian and Thai somewhat similar that's why I fell in love with Thai food!
I make a version of nasi goereng which I guess isn't very traditional but I love it. I do it by making the rice in a large pot and frying chicken, peas, red, green and yellow peppers as well as green onions in another pan. I use sweet soya sauce, sambal and quite a bit of cumin and just put everything in with the rice and stir when the rice is cooked. It's served with pineapple slices and a home made peanut sauce.
My favorite Nasi Goreng comes with prawn crackers, beef satay skewer, fried chicken 🍗, grilled prawns, pickled salad, tomatoes 🦐, fried egg 🍳 and the rice is topped with caramelized fried onions. Yum, yum, yum! 😋 Thanks Pailin for showing us how to cook this delicious recipe.😉🙏
Thank you for reminding me of this dish. When I was in Indonesia, I would try Nasi goreng where ever I went. Now I will make it myself thanks to your video.
I tried Indonesian food for the first time last week in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and wow how flavorful was the food. Since then, I have been watching every single indonesian recipe on youtube. Those who has never tried Indonesian food before, try this recipe, you will love it.
As an Indonesian, I was expecting that your "Indonesian Fried Rice" will differ at least a little bit with mine. Because you are a Thai person. But at the end, I have to say that you really made an authentic Indonesian Fried Rice. You also explain clearly the use of each ingredient. Hats off to you! 👍
Hi Pai, great to see you put this recipe up on your youtube channel. As an Indonesian who live in Australia, a food lover, and a caterer you only missed one ingredient in your nasi goreng paste that is chilli. Indonesians love spicy. Chilli is used for almost of the Indonesian recipe. One more thing, kecap manis is Indonesian secret ingredient and cannot be substituted. I love your videos and inspired me in cooking Thai food.
my grandfather was born in Jakarta so i kinda grew up with this dish. i remember mom used to put some green peas in it, maby that's the European touch ;-)
hello from Indonesia,it's past midnight now in here,thank you very much for presenting this popular food which you can actually find from street stalls to five stars hotels :)) and there are many version of this.
I like my nasi goreng to be super spicy. usually I put fried tofu and fresh cucumber on top of my nasi goreng. tofu and cucumber can balance it, you know, like yin and yang.. lol
Im from Malaysia!! I got so excited when u mentioned Malaysian shrimp paste!! it is so popular here!! Keep it up Pai. I love love loveeeeeeee your videos! huge fan from Malaysia 😘😘😘
I'm Indonesian. I always like to see your vdio.today I'm so surprais when see you cook my country food. that is my favorite food too.. nasi goreng. love u.
I'd like to use kencur (kaempferia galanga), pete (stinky bean), julienne slices of kefir lime leaves (without midrib or leaf bone and petiole), and green chilli for my nasi goreng. It feel so aromatic, and delicious. I don't use fish sauce for indonesian nasi goreng kampung, it is for chinese style fried rice. But anyway, nice recipe, thanks.
I'm Indonesian. The only differences for me, I would add some powder beef bouillon and use fresh Thai chilies instead of the jar sambal oelek. That is because the jar sambal oelek has vinegar in it which Indonesian do not normally use vinaigrette chilies for fried rice. I also use about two tablespoons of blue band margarine instead of oil and I don't use fish sauce. Everything else is the same.
Usually i'd love to put meatball, fishball, squids, shrimps, fried anchovy and veggies like cabbage, collard green, peas 😂 do versatile you can add any kind of things that u desire
got my mouth watering to see this video. I'm Indonesian living in Thailand. If I want KauPad (thai fried rice) let say I can buy. If I want Nasi Goreng, I have to make it by myself. they're really different in taste but still they're so good 👌
There's just so many variations of Nasi Goreng and i personally like Seafood Nasi Goreng with shrimps fishcake crabmeat & Nasi Goreng Kampung as well with a green chilli paste and anchovies!!!
Thank you Pailin for promoting our cuisine. One more ingredient you shall put is candle nut with the paste. Way to go Pailin! Love your channel and I love Thai food too.
Hi pai! I'm from a caribbean country called Surinam that is made up of many mixed etnicities such as the indonesian people! Our country is so diverse nonetheless we're basically united by food. Good food is our staple and recipes are there for generations and generations. In my family we sometimes add dried baby shrimp (can also be rehydrated). Another thing we use is oyster sauce mixed with the soy sauce for that umaminess. And another topping i would suggest is fried garlic ! Love your show and love for food!! Keep up the good work.
In east Java people use ketchup and little bit soy sauce and sweet soy sauce(kecap manis). We put Cabage (cut into thin pieces) and yu choi. Shrimp is also common ingredient. If you like stinky bean (sator) it's also good to mix with.
Yes you are totally correct Pai. The most important ingredients from Nasi Goreng is Kecap Manis. The second one is one day before rice. Do not use fresh cooked rice.
Your videos are those that I never have a second thought on whether or not I'll watch them. I just came back from Indonesia, your recipe definitely looks as authentic as any Nasi Goreng I've had through out Indonesia.
I like to make my nasi goreng with ikan teri(nasi), the very small one Anchovy, I fry them first in coconut oil until crispy, set aside. In that same oil you fry the rest of the nasi goreng. the bumbu and the rice. I love to put patai too ( = sator beans) . To sweeten it up I also use a spoon of abon sapi. Enak sekali.
Everytime i watch your video i get hungry.... why is it..??? Maybe because i love Asian foods and your way of cocking is so fun and yummy... Need to go now, need to find for some food, i'm starving. Byee.....
I was surprised finding you cooking Indonesian fried rice. Yes, Thai and Indonesian food cooked with many ingredients, make them rich in flavor. In fact, Thai food was the first one got me survived in USA. First couple months in US, I was struggling finding food I liked, trying Mexican, Indian, Chinese, American, and I could not get the taste that satisfied my tongue, until I tried Thai curry from local restaurant in Melbourne, FL. Thanks God. Beside, I found Thai people are very friendly. Anyway love your videos, and thanks for your recipes.
I am a Sri Lankan fan of your's and making some of your popular dishes like papaya salad, Nas Goreng etc. My family love these. Thanking for your fatastic presentations. Sarath
My favorite dish in the world, i'd eat it every single day! I personally think the key to Nasi Goreng would be the "baceman bawang" and the sweet soysauce. baceman bawang is basically ground up garlic and candle nut, completely submerged in vegetable oil for at least 2 days to ferment in an airtight glass jar and use this fermented oil to toast the herb paste from your recipe. this gives the certain "umpfh" to the overall taste. also great for stir frying base.
If it is nasi goreng, the belachan is in my opinion non negotiable. The smell is funky but sooooooo gooood. Glad you added achar as condiment along with the fried shallots. They are absolutely great at completing the dish. In Singapore and Malaysia, the achar will be a spicy sort and we tend to also include red or green chilis with the nasi.
I usually scramble eggs with the rice straight away, top with sunny side up egg, fried sjalots, veggies, and some satay or fried chicken on the side. The variation in combinations is endless. Great vid
Pailin, you can add Fresh Thai Sator Beans To Nasi Goreng too; it is common to see Sator on Fried Rice. In Indonesia, we call Sator "Pete." you can get fresh Thai Sator in Vancouver's Chinatown shop called "Asian Market. " I used to shop there a lot when I was living and studying in Canada.
Hai, I'm from Indonesia, after i watched your video about nasi goreng. I never put the terasi when i make some nasi goreng, n i always add an egg mix with the rice and put some sausage or bakso "meat ball" as well. But that's very interest because i never use terasi.. hehe
Make your krupuk your self, its easy and then you are sure there are shrimps in it. Buying for me is a no no. They have the shrimp color, yeah, we all know what the food industry can do... Cucumber is great with her dish. There so many ways to make this, its a left over dish, this one is great also. Thank you so much..!
I assume every culture has its own version of how to prepare fried rice! It's such a universal dish! I'm not a rice fan but I loved this video a lot. Thanks so much Pailin. I'm eagerly waiting for your next video already! Love you so much. You definitely make cooking look fun and easy. That's a great message & impression to all modern girls out there who hardly know what even a kitchen is!
I love making a paste of green chilies (not the spicy one), shallots and garlic, sometimes adding Thai basil as well, and make a green nasi goreng. Then sprinkle crispy fried 'ikan teri', anchovies-like fish, and add some kerupuk 'emping'. So good!
I'm Indonesian but actually I don't really have a sweet tongue and therefore I'm not really a kecap manis person (I use maggi or regular soy sauce more often) but I must agree that we cannot leave kecap manis for this recipe. For those with more of a salty tongue like me, in Indonesia there is also a popular kind of homemade fried rice (its rarely found at the streets or in restaurants) which is butter/margarine fried rice, it's a popular school meal for children and it's simply rice fried off with butter/margarine (hence their yellow color) and seasoned with salt or stock powder. Usually an egg will join the party. I sometimes add garlic and green onion for taste and corned beef or sausage for protein, but it's just as good eaten by itself. Pai, you've done a great job, keep it up!
I'm from Surabaya, Indonesia. My favorite nasi goreng is called 'nasi goreng mawut' which consists of chicken, noodle, cabbage, bean sprout, green mustard (in Indonesia its called sawi hijau) with boiled/fried egg, cucumber (fresh/pickled), fried shallots, & green lettuce as toppings.. Its so delicious.. You have to try it..^^
In my hometown in Central Java Indonesia, besides shallots and garlic they add some "pala"(grind together with garlic and shallot). Tomatoes is sliced and stir-fried with the paste together with green onions and vegetables. Before adding the rice add a lil bit of chicken soup --> pour the sauce and add the rice... :D
instead terasi you can use also 'ebi' . its kind of dried shrimp or shrimp that have been sun-dried and shrunk to a thumbnail size. Normally you will find it small and dry in the package and then you must put it in the water before use until the shrimp become soft and swell. Crush it or blend together with your onion. 😊
You could also put grind coriander seed and ginger, also sausage is great companion with the fried rice but actually you can put anything you want but this is how I like my fried rice.
Hi Pallin, I like Nasi Goreng with stink beans and real Indonesian peanut sause. I'm from the Netherlands, so we used to eat Indonesian food from the day that we are kids...Kroepoek and peanut sause are so normal for us Dutchies ;)
my family is dutch so we also had nasi goreng a lot!! we usually used onion, corn, and green beans or snap peas in it, and my mum would melt a dollop of wowbutter (peanut allergy house lol) into it before serving! we'd usually eat it with cucumber slices ^^
remind me, whenever we have leftover rice my mom will cook nasi goreng the day after. she just put whatever we have in the fridge. you can also change the rice with noodles, with the same recipe and toppings >< another toppings like lettuce, fresh cucumber, fried anchovy, fried chicken, sunny side egg or else
Pai Lin, you are amazing! hahaha.. I'm Indonesian and I'm one of your subscriber. I love ALL of your recipes! By the way, just wanna give additional comments on Nasi Goreng: - that's correct for the white rice, should use the cold rice. Which means you have cooked the white rice at least 4 hours before you make it as nasi goreng. Also, when you make the white rice, make sure you've made it a bit dry. - when mix the ingredients in the wok, please use low heat, but once the white rice, kecap, and salt are included in the wok, it is advisable to use a high heat and toss it until it's all mixed. That's all. Thank you Pailin for all of your recipes!
i love to put Spam, chicken or pork, frozen pea corn carrot and then top the rice with a sunshine egg just like you. thank you so much for the video. love you.
wow... as an Indonesian I am amazed by the way you imitate our recipe and pallet. Just the way we used to make in here. you can also use fried tofu as a substitute for the Krupuk or fried Tempe.
Love the way you cook the nasi goreng. I blend dried chillies sub for sambal oelek. And also I added salted fish cut in small pieces. Omg. So yummmm! Oh yaaa less the salt too if u add salted fish. Looking forward for more asian dishes!
my nasi goreng i like to put the stinky beans and anchovy ,just fried it with onion and chili,than add the anchovy and stinky beans..than the rice add salt ...that's it ..
Hi, First of allllll I should thank you dear, Thank you sooo much!!!! coz I'm not cooking well, but after watching your recipe I always impressing my husband with my dish.... I don't have time make foods everyday so Saturday is the of cooking of our house, so I'm tried in your style it was great success. Your recipes superb and cool. Thank you..
Hai, I eat nasi goreng with "bakwan" (it's like anomiyaki in Japan, but with small size and without chicken) ... It's will be perfect.. Thanks coz promote Indonesia Food 😁
A bit suggestion. I usually fried the protein separately with a bit of the spices (1/4 spoon is enough). Then after you fried the spices step, put the sauces in. Wait until they reduce a bit. It will caramelized a bit and fused the flavor with the spices much better, then you can add the rice and the protein which you already fried separately. Try it. With the same recipe it will taste much better.
Thank you Pailin for making an amazing presentation and preparation of our Indonesian national dish. It is really authentic and is prepared exactly the way we do it. Some people also add a fried chicken and chicken satay on the side. Additionally the acar may be mixed with shallots and bird eye chillis. Also plus sambal terasi on the side.

Do more Indonesian please 🙏❤
this is not not nasi goreng. This is chicken fried rice
I'm from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Quick tip: Make the sambal yourself. I've tried making it with sambal oelek but the taste is not right at all. It's more of a condiment. It made the weirdest nasi goreng i've ever had. Just make a paste out of red chilis, shallots and garlic, add some salt and brown sugar (+ lemongrass if you have it). That sambal will give the right type of taste and spice to nasi goreng.
I made this last week, following your recipe. It's my first try at cooking south asian food and it was delicious. Thank you so much!
Southeast asian
I'm Indonesian and you make your nasi goreng in the authentic way. I really love your channel.
And you pronounce every indonesian word exactly how they should be pronounce. Maybe you should try to make another indonesian recipes like "gado-gado".
It is absolutely not the authentic way
Jenis beras apa yang digunakan? nasi basmati?
I am making book for authentic food recipes it will be authentic recipe if i use basmati rice?
I just cooked this dish earlier. Quick tip: if you cant get a hold of shrimp paste, or if you just dont like the funky smell of it, you can use a shrimp broth cube instead. I use the Knorr brand. It's sooo good. gives u that umami flavor just as well.
That Knorr shrimp broth cube is so good. Unfortunately it's not sold in Indonesia albeit being produced in the Philippines. Quite bizarre that you could easily get it in London but not Jakarta? 😂
I'm from the Netherlands, and this dish is so common here too. Love it. When I was a child, I only knew ketjap as a soy sauce. I had not seen any other soy sauces yet.You should make Indosian penaut sauce !
@Kalli.ming Yes she has that Chinese attitude and look.
Ketjap or Kecap in Indonesian is the default name for sweet soy sauce. For a regular soy sauce we call em salty kecap specifically.
Listen here Pai, I tried this Nasi Goreng and it is FANTASTIC 😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥!!! It’s so good! I added bacon, cabbage, shredded carrots sweet peas topped with cucumber, fresh lemon and micro herbs to mine. This is elite honestly. Thank you my whole family LOVES this.!
The most authentic Nasi Goreng coming from non-indonesian in RUclips! Good job, Pai 😊
Wow. I think you're the first non Indonesian i see on youtube who make pretty authentic Nasi Goreng. Im impressed. 👍 special thumbs up for your presentation. That's how it is normally served at the restaurants. You even included fried shallots. Kerupuk yes, kecap manis yes, terasi yessssss. My must have toppings: 1. Fried egg. 2. Cucumber.

Heerlijk hoe een gerecht de hele wereld over gaat, ook hier in Nederland altijd smullen met Nasi Goreng. En ik hou van Ketjap Manis:)
Thank you :)
Huisz dat klopt als een bus. en ketjap manis kan je niet missen. slamet makan.
Try cooking the krupuk in the microwave :P
I am Indonesian and my dad used to do this all the time since i was a kid.
IT WORKS!!!! just put a few at a time for like 10 to 15 seconds. You will see... if it needs more time. The uncooked part will appear more transparent than the cooked one
I love how on point is your pronounciation of 'krupuk' and 'terasi'.
Love from Indonesia ❤️
I love Thai food too. I gained some kilos when I was back from my visit to Thailand a long time ago because I kept on earing and ate all on my plates. The taste of Indonesian and Thai somewhat similar that's why I fell in love with Thai food!

I might not agree with all the ingredients involved but the way you have presented in this video is so delightful. Great job!
I like my nasi goreng to be super spicy. usually I put fried tofu and fresh cucumber on top of my nasi goreng. tofu and cucumber can balance it, you know, like yin and yang.. lol
tofu? innovative!
@@zamlahani tempeh is also good
I love to use chicken sausage , cubed beef , shredded chicken , green chillies and veggies in my nasi .
Yesss! I love nasi goreng especially Nasi Goreng Kampung. Garnished with fried anchovies and kangkung. Yummm
Hi malay🖐️
thanks to promoted Indonesian food. good job :)
greetings from Indonesia
Im from Malaysia!! I got so excited when u mentioned Malaysian shrimp paste!! it is so popular here!! Keep it up Pai. I love love loveeeeeeee your videos! huge fan from Malaysia 😘😘😘
She mispronounced the Bahasa Melayu word for 'shrimp paste', 'belacan', pronounced as 'ber-la-CHAN'.
I'm Indonesian. I always like to see your vdio.today I'm so surprais when see you cook my country food. that is my favorite food too.. nasi goreng. love u.
I'm Indonesian and now I live in Bangkok, what a perfect youtube content for me. You are more talented to cook nasi goreng than Indonesian 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'd like to use kencur (kaempferia galanga), pete (stinky bean), julienne slices of kefir lime leaves (without midrib or leaf bone and petiole), and green chilli for my nasi goreng. It feel so aromatic, and delicious. I don't use fish sauce for indonesian nasi goreng kampung, it is for chinese style fried rice. But anyway, nice recipe, thanks.

I also use about two tablespoons of blue band margarine instead of oil and I don't use fish sauce. Everything else is the same.
Its amazing Pai, am indonesian and this is exactly how i cook my Nasi goreng ❤️🤤🇮🇩 thank youuuuuuu x
Jenis beras apa yang digunakan? nasi basmati?
The belacan will make us sneeze but the taste of nasi goreng will be outta this world!
Usually i'd love to put meatball, fishball, squids, shrimps, fried anchovy and veggies like cabbage, collard green, peas 😂 do versatile you can add any kind of things that u desire
This is my first time checking out the channel. I'm half Indonesian and Bengali from Chinatown NYC
got my mouth watering to see this video. I'm Indonesian living in Thailand. If I want KauPad (thai fried rice) let say I can buy. If I want Nasi Goreng, I have to make it by myself. they're really different in taste but still they're so good 👌
Authentic one Pai.. we called it nasi goreng kampung, with kerupuk, acar, fried shallot.. love it
There's just so many variations of Nasi Goreng and i personally like Seafood Nasi Goreng with shrimps fishcake crabmeat & Nasi Goreng Kampung as well with a green chilli paste and anchovies!!!
You can chili in the herb paste if you prefer spicy food. Meatball or fishcake also common to be add to nasi goreng.
Sawadi Khrap, Wah terimakasih sudah memperkenalkan makanan khas Indonesia, I am from Indonesia. Khopkun Khrap.
Thank you Pailin for promoting our cuisine. One more ingredient you shall put is candle nut with the paste. Way to go Pailin! Love your channel and I love Thai food too.
Hi pai! I'm from a caribbean country called Surinam that is made up of many mixed etnicities such as the indonesian people! Our country is so diverse nonetheless we're basically united by food. Good food is our staple and recipes are there for generations and generations. In my family we sometimes add dried baby shrimp (can also be rehydrated). Another thing we use is oyster sauce mixed with the soy sauce for that umaminess. And another topping i would suggest is fried garlic ! Love your show and love for food!! Keep up the good work.
Ohh and another typical thing in our country is pickled peppers!! Those are the best you get the spicyness, sweetness and tartness in one combo.
Good to know, thanks!
In east Java people use ketchup and little bit soy sauce and sweet soy sauce(kecap manis). We put Cabage (cut into thin pieces) and yu choi. Shrimp is also common ingredient. If you like stinky bean (sator) it's also good to mix with.
Yes you are totally correct Pai. The most important ingredients from Nasi Goreng is Kecap Manis. The second one is one day before rice. Do not use fresh cooked rice.
Your videos are those that I never have a second thought on whether or not I'll watch them.
I just came back from Indonesia, your recipe definitely looks as authentic as any Nasi Goreng I've had through out Indonesia.
LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I am Indonesian, but i think you cooked it way way way better than i did. Thanks for cooking it Pai. You are the best!!!

I love to have emping ( chips made out of melinjo) in my nasi goreng. I was born and raised in Indonesia.
I am Indonesian, I prefer nasi goreng without kecap manis. Btw nice job.

That's a great message & impression to all modern girls out there who hardly know what even a kitchen is!
I love making a paste of green chilies (not the spicy one), shallots and garlic, sometimes adding Thai basil as well, and make a green nasi goreng. Then sprinkle crispy fried 'ikan teri', anchovies-like fish, and add some kerupuk 'emping'. So good!
I'm Indonesian but actually I don't really have a sweet tongue and therefore I'm not really a kecap manis person (I use maggi or regular soy sauce more often) but I must agree that we cannot leave kecap manis for this recipe.
For those with more of a salty tongue like me, in Indonesia there is also a popular kind of homemade fried rice (its rarely found at the streets or in restaurants) which is butter/margarine fried rice, it's a popular school meal for children and it's simply rice fried off with butter/margarine (hence their yellow color) and seasoned with salt or stock powder. Usually an egg will join the party. I sometimes add garlic and green onion for taste and corned beef or sausage for protein, but it's just as good eaten by itself.
Pai, you've done a great job, keep it up!
I'm from Surabaya, Indonesia. My favorite nasi goreng is called 'nasi goreng mawut' which consists of chicken, noodle, cabbage, bean sprout, green mustard (in Indonesia its called sawi hijau) with boiled/fried egg, cucumber (fresh/pickled), fried shallots, & green lettuce as toppings.. Its so delicious.. You have to try it..^^
In my hometown in Central Java Indonesia, besides shallots and garlic they add some "pala"(grind together with garlic and shallot). Tomatoes is sliced and stir-fried with the paste together with green onions and vegetables. Before adding the rice add a lil bit of chicken soup --> pour the sauce and add the rice... :D
instead terasi you can use also 'ebi' . its kind of dried shrimp or shrimp that have been sun-dried and shrunk to a thumbnail size. Normally you will find it small and dry in the package and then
you must put it in the water before use until the shrimp become soft and swell. Crush it or blend together with your onion. 😊
You could also put grind coriander seed and ginger, also sausage is great companion with the fried rice but actually you can put anything you want but this is how I like my fried rice.
Almost every dish in Indonesia has crispy shallots as a garnish or topping
I am Indonesian who live in Thailand. You could spell Indonesian words perfectly! 👍🏻
Hi Pallin, I like Nasi Goreng with stink beans and real Indonesian peanut sause. I'm from the Netherlands, so we used to eat Indonesian food from the day that we are kids...Kroepoek and peanut sause are so normal for us Dutchies ;)

Colin has just cooked Nasi Goreng and it was lovely and probably better than our local Chinese takeaway 👍👍🌟
Colin 🇬🇧
my family is dutch so we also had nasi goreng a lot!! we usually used onion, corn, and green beans or snap peas in it, and my mum would melt a dollop of wowbutter (peanut allergy house lol) into it before serving! we'd usually eat it with cucumber slices ^^
remind me, whenever we have leftover rice my mom will cook nasi goreng the day after. she just put whatever we have in the fridge. you can also change the rice with noodles, with the same recipe and toppings >< another toppings like lettuce, fresh cucumber, fried anchovy, fried chicken, sunny side egg or else
Pai Lin, you are amazing! hahaha.. I'm Indonesian and I'm one of your subscriber. I love ALL of your recipes!
By the way, just wanna give additional comments on Nasi Goreng:
- that's correct for the white rice, should use the cold rice. Which means you have cooked the white rice at least 4 hours before you make it as nasi goreng. Also, when you make the white rice, make sure you've made it a bit dry.
- when mix the ingredients in the wok, please use low heat, but once the white rice, kecap, and salt are included in the wok, it is advisable to use a high heat and toss it until it's all mixed.
That's all.
Thank you Pailin for all of your recipes!
Thank you!
Jenis beras apa yang digunakan? nasi basmati?
i love to put Spam, chicken or pork, frozen pea corn carrot and then top the rice with a sunshine egg just like you. thank you so much for the video. love you.
mate you made me hungry
Delicious Indonesia 🇮🇩 nasi goreng and kerupuk udang 😋
fried anchovies are delicious tooooooo but keropok is a must when it comes to nasi goreng hehe
hi,here in Holland we eat nasi with chicken satay and peanut sauce.
wow... as an Indonesian I am amazed by the way you imitate our recipe and pallet. Just the way we used to make in here. you can also use fried tofu as a substitute for the Krupuk or fried Tempe.
Wow you really know your Indonesian cuisine! Great job. New fan right here
Love the way you cook the nasi goreng. I blend dried chillies sub for sambal oelek. And also I added salted fish cut in small pieces. Omg. So yummmm! Oh yaaa less the salt too if u add salted fish. Looking forward for more asian dishes!

Shrimp paste in Indonesia is calling " Terasi, but in Malay is Belacan
Hi, First of allllll I should thank you dear, Thank you sooo much!!!! coz I'm not cooking well, but after watching your recipe I always impressing my husband with my dish.... I don't have time make foods everyday so Saturday is the of cooking of our house, so I'm tried in your style it was great success. Your recipes superb and cool. Thank you..
Hai,
I eat nasi goreng with "bakwan" (it's like anomiyaki in Japan, but with small size and without chicken) ...
It's will be perfect..
Thanks coz promote Indonesia Food
😁
A bit suggestion. I usually fried the protein separately with a bit of the spices (1/4 spoon is enough). Then after you fried the spices step, put the sauces in. Wait until they reduce a bit. It will caramelized a bit and fused the flavor with the spices much better, then you can add the rice and the protein which you already fried separately. Try it. With the same recipe it will taste much better.
I'm Filipina I love indo foods 😘
@Quncrut she actually is lol, look up her subscriptions
The shrimp paste made from Penang, Malaysia where the place I stay. Hehe...Very nice
nice also to put cabbage and oyster sauce as a replacement for sweet sauce and also its nice to use tuna as protein.
Love how precise you pronounce all the Indonesian terms. 😁😁😁
love it. I love to put sausage, frozen peas, meatball and anything I have in fridge
Thanks, that is more on point! More like Indonesian cuisine that my Granma cook, Unlike the other RUclipsrs, you done your research Well..
Love it...
A good replacement for shrimp paste is dried anchovies
This recipe looks so tasty. Thank you for sharing friend. Stay connected!
Yes, shrimp paste is so aromatic. Another reason to love my comfort food.
Thank you Pailin for making an amazing presentation and preparation of our Indonesian national dish. It is really authentic and is prepared exactly the way we do it. Some people also add a fried chicken and chicken satay on the side. Additionally the acar may be mixed with shallots and bird eye chillis. Also plus sambal terasi on the side.
