Krengsengan

Krengsengan is a traditional stir-fry dish originating from Surabaya. It's usually made with a combination of lamb, onion, garlic, chili peppers, bay leaves, salt, ginger, soy sauce, and oil. The ingredients are simply sautéed in oil, and the lamb meat is cut into chunks and stir-fried near the end of cooking.


A bit of water is added to the pan and it's brought to a boil, and the dish is ready when the meat becomes fully tender. This dish can be bought from vendors at numerous street stalls.
