| 1 | There are quite a few pork dishes in the book (including another version of this one). |
| 2 | Evidently minorities are well enough represented that pork has earned a place in the cuisine of predominantly muslim indonesia. |
| 3 | I think this would be excellent done with 1 inch long pieces of baby back ribs. |
| 4 | I also won"t stew it as long as i did++or maybe use bigger chunks of pork. |
| 5 | I used pieces between a half and a quarter inch on a side and the meat got a tad dried out. |
| 6 | No complaint on the taste though! i"ll also toss in a couple of scallions cut into one inch chunks just before it"s done stewing. |
| 7 | I was out of sambal oelek so i used some tuong ot toi cut with a little lime juice. |
| 8 | Worked good. |
| 9 | Dice pork, rub in salt and pepper and fry in hot oil or margarine. |
| 10 | Then add the finely sliced onions, spices and the hot pepper condiment. |
| 11 | After this add the water and the soy sauce. |
| 12 | Bring to the boil and simmer for at least half an hour until the meat is done. |
| 13 | Serve babi ketjap on a large plate, garnish with sliced tomatoes and chopped vegetable pickles. |
| 14 | Eat with plain or savory rice or mei |
