Ingredients

For the Galantin:

• 150 grams of beef
• 150 grams of chicken
• 2 slices of bread (white)
• 100 ml of liquid milk
• 1 tablespoon of sago flour (tapioca flour)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

For the Sauce:

• 3 tablespoons ketchup
• 1/2 onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• Cooking oil for sautéing

For Serving:

• Carrots, sliced
• Broccoli florets
• Green beans
• Fried potatoes
• Lettuce leaves

Instructions

1. Prepare the Galantin:

   • Soak the slices of bread in the milk and set aside. In a blender, combine the beef and chicken. Add the soaked bread, sago flour, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
   • Form the mixture into three cylindrical shapes and wrap each with a piece of parchment paper or banana leaves, securing the ends.
   • Steam the wrapped galantin for 20 minutes, or until fully cooked. Once done, remove from the steamer and let cool slightly. Unwrap, then pan-fry in butter or cooking oil until golden brown on all sides. Allow to cool, then slice the galantin on a diagonal.

2. Make the Tomato Sauce:

   • In a skillet, heat a small amount of cooking oil over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and sauté until fragrant.
   • Stir in the ketchup and add 150 ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer.
   • Add the finely chopped onion, salt, black pepper, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, sweet soy sauce, and nutmeg. Adjust seasoning to taste.
   • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the sauce and cook until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Prepare the Accompaniments:

   • Boil or steam the carrots, broccoli, and green beans until tender. Alternatively, you can sauté them lightly in a pan.
   • Fry the potatoes until golden brown and crispy.
   • Arrange the vegetables and fried potatoes on a serving plate with the sliced galantin.

4. Serve:

   • Drizzle the tomato sauce over the sliced galantin or serve it on the side.
   • Garnish with fresh lettuce leaves and serve immediately.

This delightful dish brings together the rich flavors of beef and chicken galantin with a tangy and sweet tomato sauce. Perfectly complemented by a medley of fresh vegetables and crispy potatoes, it makes for a well-rounded and satisfying meal. Enjoy your cooking adventure with this classic Indonesian favorite!
