Diversity of Indonesian Accompaniments and Sambals Recipes

In Indonesia, food is seldom served in individual portions. Rice and other dishes are placed on the table for people to help themselves. Most Indonesians like spicy food, so sambal is an essensial part of the daily meals

Sambal is a condiment used in Indonesia, made from a variety of peppers, although chili peppers are the most common and sometimes it's substituted for fresh chilis; it can be very hot for the uninitiated.
