Ramadan 2015 Day 26 - Sambal Goreng

Sambal goreng is actually a medley of potato, tofu, string beans, carrots, tempe and some dried hot chili peppers. I also added some rice stick noodle or suhun to the dish.

This dish is nice to be eaten with cube white rice or ketupat. It can also be eaten just like that.
