Ingredients | Rendang Ayam Lengkuas

5 cloves garlic, peeled, divided

3 shallots, divided

1 ½ inch piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped

1 ½ inch piece galangal, thinly sliced

½ teaspoon ground coriander

2 teaspoons salt, divided

4 chicken thighs

1 ¼ cups water

2 salam leaves (substitute with curry leaves)

3 teaspoons oil, divided, or as needed

½ tomato

11 fresh red chile pepper, finely chopped

4 tablespoons key lime juice, or to taste

1 teaspoon shrimp paste

½ teaspoon white sugar

1 bunch lemon basil (kemangi)

Directions

Combine garlic, 1 shallot, ginger, galangal, coriander, and 1 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mortar and pestle; pound into a paste.

Combine chicken with the garlic paste, water, and salam leaves in a pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat 2 teaspoons oil in a skillet. Once the chicken is fully boiled, fry the chicken in the skillet until it's golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes.

For the sambal (chili sauce) heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook remaining 2 shallots, tomato, and red chiles for 2 minutes. Move to a mortar and pestle and add lime juice, shrimp paste, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, and lemon basil. Pound everything into a paste.

Place the sambal (chile sauce) at the bottom of a serving plate and place the chicken on top of the dish.
