A late submission for BEC’s English Friday challenge week 10: what is my favorite Indonesian food.
My answer is Pecel! I can never resist the temptation, at least to try how it tastes anywhere I find it. There are so many variations of it, but the one I like the most is the one known as Pecel Madiun. Wikipedia already has the full description of this food.
I love this particular food since it has so many vegetables in it. Most common vegetables that are used in Pecel are water spinach, spinach, yardlong bean and mung bean sprout. We can boil or steam those vegetables. When we serve it, only then peanut sauce is added. The peanut sauce ingredient itself vary depend on how you like it. Level of spiciness is also determined from the peanut sauce.
I prefer to have this Pecel served with fried tempeh, tofu, and egg. How about you? do you like Pecel?

Wah, pecel juga salah satu makanan favorit aku makanan indonesia enak semua soalnya, terutama kalau pedes. But there is also another kind of food with peanut sauce, such as lotek, karedok, gado-gado. Do you like them also mas Dani?
I love peyek when I ate pecel. Not spicy is for sure
I am a big fan of pecel for breakfast. However, I just learned that my favorite pecel in Malang, Pecel Kawi, closed down their business after more than three decade. Rumor has it that they are having internal conflict. Ah, pecel should only bring joy, not conflict.
akuuu suka pecel pincuk sama iwak peyek, pak dan. udah sah jadi istrinya orang suroboyo kan? 😛
Pecel dan gado-gado bersaudara, suka banget! 😀
I love Pecel Madiun the best. It was my daily menu when I was on diet

pecel jadi makanan paling murah di kantor. dan antriannya panjang, bisa sampe dua baris 😀
Exactly! But what is the difference between pecel and lotek?
I’m not familiar with Lotek actually Nad, so I can’t answer what is the difference precisely between the two. 🙁
Oooh… Maybe Lotek is when the nut sauce being blend with the veggies since on the grinder. So, it’s all mixed up. We usually have pecel where the veggie and nut sauce on the different plate, don’t we?
Oooh. I see. Thanks Nad. 😀
