Instructions
- Begin by slicing the tempe according to your preference; I recommend cutting it into long strips for an appealing presentation.
- In a frying pan, heat oil and fry the tempe until it reaches a semi-dry texture, allowing it to develop a nice golden color.
- While the tempe is frying, prepare the spice mixture by grinding the long green chilies, red shallots, and garlic together until they form a smooth paste.
- Once the tempe is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, sauté the ground spice mixture until fragrant.
- Add the fried tempe and the dried anchovies to the pan, followed by a sprinkle of salt, Sasa seasoning, and sweet soy sauce. Stir everything together until well combined, ensuring the tempe and anchovies are evenly coated with the delicious seasoning.
- Serve warm, and enjoy this flavorful Tempe Sambel Teri as a delightful accompaniment to your meal!
