Rojak Bandung | Traditional Salad From Singapore, Southeast Asia | TasteAtlas

Rojak bandung

(Rujak bandung)

Rojak bandung is a spin on rojak, an Indonesian salad that is widely consumed throughout Singapore and Malaysia and comes in many versions. This version offers a unique blend of flavors and textures: fresh and crunchy cucumber slices, soft, blanched pieces of cuttlefish and water spinach, and crispy fried tofu puffs all drenched in a sweet, sour, and spicy sauce.


The sauce is typically made with a combination of black shrimp paste, tomato sauce or ketchup, palm sugar, tamarind paste or lime, garlic, and chili paste. Just like other versions of Singaporean rojak, this one also comes with a generous amount of ground peanuts on top, and it's commonly garnished with toasted sesame seeds.


Rice vermicelli (bee hoon) is a common accompaniment to this dish, while some versions may also add boiled eggs to the combination.
