Long Beans Stir Fry

(Tumis Kacang Panjang)

tumis-kacang-panjang-tahu

This Tumis Kacang Panjang recipe is really simple, yet delicious and can be eaten with other side dishes. As Indonesian's way to eat, we mostly eat with rice, some vegetables and meat. This time I made with tofu for additional ingredients. You can use tempe instead of tofu as well or other meat like shrimp/prawn, or beef. And this dish is actually combination of vegetables and meat, because tofu and tempe is also considering as a substitute for the meat.
