Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 10 pieces Red chilies (mild or spicy, depending on preference)
- 6 medium-sized Shallots
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 2 medium Tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Palm sugar (or brown sugar as a substitute)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for frying and sautéing)
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Let them simmer for 10 minutes until hard-boiled.
When the eggs are done, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool. Peel the eggs and set aside.
Using a blender or food processor, blend the red chilies, shallots, garlic, and tomatoes into a coarse paste.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the peeled eggs until the surface is golden and lightly crispy. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet and sauté the chili paste over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and the oil separates from the mixture.
Stir in the lime juice, palm sugar, salt, and water. Adjust the seasoning if needed, ensuring the sambal is balanced in heat and tanginess.
Return the fried eggs to the skillet, gently tossing them in the sambal until fully coated.
Simmer on low heat for 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove from heat and serve warm with steamed rice.
