| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Tempe | 1 block (approximately 15 cm long) |
| All-purpose flour | 5 tablespoons (Sajiku brand) |

Instructions:

Prepare the Tempe
Cut the tempe into small cubes. In a bowl, prepare a mixture by diluting the all-purpose flour with a little water to create a batter. Dip each piece of tempe into this flour mixture. -
Fry the Tempe
Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the coated tempe until golden and crispy. Once fried, place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. -
Sauté the Garlic
In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed, then sauté the finely chopped garlic until it turns golden brown. Be careful not to let it burn, as it can give a bitter taste. -
Sauté the Chili and Green Onion
Add the chopped red chili and green onion to the pan, and sauté for just a few seconds until fragrant. -
Combine the Ingredients
Season the sautéed garlic, chili, and onion with a pinch of salt. Add the fried tempe cubes into the pan. Stir gently to coat the tempe evenly with the flavorful mixture. -
Serve
Once everything is well-mixed, remove the tempe from the pan and serve it while hot. Pair it with warm steamed rice for a delightful meal.
Enjoy this crispy, savory, and slightly spicy Indonesian dish with every bite! 🌿🍽
