It’s now served in nearly every warung (family restaurant) across the country with a fried egg, sliced cucumber, chilli sambal and prawn crackers. It’s flavoured with a paste containing shallots, chilli, garlic and tamarind resulting in a delicious savoury dish full of umami - the 5th taste after salty, bitter, sour and sweet.

This kit contains the recipe and all of the spice blends needed to cook the different components of the meal - all you need to do is add a few fresh ingredients and follow the simple steps!

YUM! I got this feeling hopeful but not suuuper optimistic because I've attempted various (non Spicery) versions of fried rice in the past with pretty limited success...but this was prettymuch foolproof and just spectacular! I will admit I was pleased to have a wok that was able to cook at a pretty high heat for this one, but I suspect it would be delicious regardless :D

We're really glad it didn't disappoint! Happy spicing!

I had wanted to repeat the experience of Nasi Goreng in Indonesia , so was a disappointed to find that the shrimp paste was not part of the kit; but the whole kit worked fine and everyone enjoyed it

Think this might be my favourite yet! Really delicious, especially the sambal. The paste is really easy to make, nicer than anything from a jar or packet, and you can choose how much sugar you wish to add. We loved this and have even ordered again. ...

Used Potabello Mushrooms and it all worked a treat. The box was hidden in a drawer so a little past its best but certainly hot enough so no loss of flavour. And seconds for tomorrow. Just lovely

This fried rice was amazing! It was full of flavor and it felt like we just ordered takeout! The Chili Sambal added so much flavor to the dish and it was nice that it gave us 6 large helpings.
