Smoor (Indonesian Chicken And Rice)
- 1 whole chicken, cut up
- 2 large onions, chopped fine (yellow or sweet)
- 1/4 cup ketjap manis (Indonesian soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 beef bouillon cube
- 1 pinch clove (or 1 whole clove)
- 1 pinch tamarind pulp (about 1/2 inch)
- 2 -3 dashes tomato ketchup
- 1 teaspoon sambal oelek (chili paste) (optional)
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- (NOTE: I have successfully tried this recipe in a crockpot. Simply throw it all in (including raw onions), mix, and cook on high 4 hours. You do not need to add water, but you can add up to 1/2 cup of you want a lot of juice.).
- Fry onions in a little oil on high until light brown. Add chicken pieces. Mix. Add enough water to cover chicken. Add all other ingredients and mix. Simmer about 45 minutes on medium heat.
- In the meantime, rinse 2 cups of jasmine rice and cook in the rice cooker.
- Serve the chicken pieces on a bed of rice. You can add additional sambal if you like it hotter.
