Nasi Goreng

To prepare nasi goreng, first get all the ingredients ready: thinly slice the green part of the scallion 1, then cut the white part lengthwise 2 and julienne it 3.

Peel the carrots and cut them into 4 lengthwise 4, then remove the central part 5 and slice them obliquely 6.

Cut the chili into slices 7 and julienne the cabbage 8. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the basmati rice for 8 minutes 9.

In the meantime, clean the chicken breast 10 and cut it into approximately 1-inch pieces 11. Once the rice is cooked, drain it and let it cool in a colander 12.

Also prepare the ingredients for decoration: cut the tomato into wedges 13, then peel the cucumber in alternating strips 14 and slice it thinly 15.

Finally, make the stir-fry sauce: peel the garlic and shallot cloves and put them in a blender 16 along with half of the chili and the vegetable oil 17, then blend everything 18.

Move to the stove: grease a wok with vegetable oil using a paper towel 19, turn on the heat and add the garlic and chili sauce 20. Stir-fry for a minute over high heat, then add the white part of the scallion 21.

After a minute add the chicken 22 and briefly brown it. When it starts to change color, add the carrots 23 and cabbage 24 and toss everything.

As soon as the vegetables have softened, season with salt and pepper 25, then deglaze with soy sauce 26 and mix well to flavor. At this point, add the rice 27.

Toss everything over high heat for a few minutes, then add the green part of the scallion 28 and the remaining half of the chili 29. Stir again and turn off the heat 30.

Grease a separate pan with vegetable oil, place a pastry ring inside and pour an egg into the center 31. Cook over low heat for a few minutes 32 adding a pinch of salt, until the white is cooked, and the yolk is still soft 33. Proceed in this way to cook the other eggs (alternatively, you can cook them simultaneously using a larger pan).

Plate the nasi goreng by placing the fried egg on top 34 and garnishing with the cucumbers 35 and raw tomatoes. The nasi goreng is ready to be served 36!
