Typical Padang Cuisine
When asked to choose a typical menu item from the local cuisine of Padang (Padang cuisine = Minangkabau cuisine) in West Sumatra, Indonesia, this is the dish.
It is not only a signature dish of Padang, but also of Indonesia, and as mentioned on the menu page, it was selected by CNN as the best dish in the world in 2017.
Beef, buffalo, and other chunks of meat stewed in coconut milk for long periods of time may sound sweet, but they’re also stewed with their own blend of spices, which makes them quite spicy.
Try this one first
It’s a hard question to answer when people ask me, “What kind of food is Indonesian?” but I think eating a lundan makes it easier to grasp what it’s like.
It is also a dish that the people of Minangkabau, who often go to work as migrant laborers, want to try as a taste of their hometown, making it the perfect first dish to learn about Padang and Indonesian cuisine.
This dish will give you an idea of what coconut milk tastes like when used in cooking, and the basic seasoning and spiciness of Indonesian cooking.
However, the spiciness is strong in its own way, so small children and those who don’t like spiciness should be very careful.
We will continue to introduce menus and Indonesian dishes on a regular basis like this.
See you in the next article.
