Hi friends of the vegan lover community, cooking delicious menus as a side dish must always be innovating. Especially by utilizing makeshift materials that are widely available in the area where I live. Tempe, for example, is located close to a tempe factory which produces lots of tempe every day, so fresh tempe is always available here. Tempe is processed soy beans which have many health benefits. So even consuming it every day is very good, of course, with a reasonable portion.

Step 3
Next, fry the peanuts in a little oil until they are cooked. Tips for frying the peanuts, don't use too much oil because they will burn quickly. So fry the peanuts with a little oil using only low heat.

Serving Suggestions

Serve fried sambal with hot rice, or you can also enjoy it with any kind of fried noodles. Very tasty, sweet, spicy and savory, very suitable to be eaten with any food, especially rice. This used to be a favorite menu when I was at school. But now because it's busy so it's very rare to prepare it.
