Gado-gado / Cooked Salads Jakarta Style

Gado-gado, Vegetarian Recipe:

Traditional dish from Indonesia. Comprises cooked vegetables and served with peanut sauce. Every region has their own names and every stall offer their choices of vegetables. The sauce also different from one stall to another. When we were kids, we used to go to different stalls, but always the taste is different. The lady mix the sauce in the big mortar and add all the vegetables into the mortar and mix it. She then place the veggies mixture into the banana leaves wrapper (before the brown wrapper came out) add the fried onion and the tapioca crackers. Now it is your turn to try and see what I'm talking about. "Selamat Menikmati..."
