This is a pretty easy dish to make. It is a good companion dish to go with nasi gurih (savory rice), but it is also perfect even with regular steamed white rice. If you want a spicy dendeng, you can always add a couple of bird eye chilies (Indonesian: cabe rawit), but I think it is better to keep it non spicy and serve with sambal terasi or sambal bajak alongside the dendeng and rice.

  • 1 inch galangal (Indonesian: lengkuas), bruised
  • 1 lb (450 gram) ground beef
  • 1½ tablespoon sweet soy sauce (Indonesian: kecap manis)
  • 1 tablespoon palm sugar (Indonesian: gula Jawa)
  • 1½ teaspoon salt
  • tamarind juice (from ½ tablespoon tamarind + 1½ tablespoon hot water), mix, massage, and strained
  • 1 cup coconut milk

Grind the following into spice paste

    Lovely Recipe. Could not find Palm sugar but used cane sugar instead and was still amazing. Thanks for the recipe.
