This Indonesian vegetable dish with green beans, tofu, tempeh and peanut sauce is a favorite in many Dutch homes today - a lasting legacy of the Netherlands' colonial past in the Dutch East Indies.

How to Ma Cheese for

PREPARATION Bring a large pot of water to the boil and cook the green beans until just cooked but still firm to the bite (al dente). This should take about 6 minutes. After 4 minutes of cooking, add the pointed ​ cabbage and broccoli. Add the bean sprouts 30 seconds before the end of the cooking time. Pour off the cooking water and drain the vegetables well. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the tofu cubes until golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Bake the cubes of tempeh in the same pan until brown and crispy. Drain on clean kitchen paper. Arrange the cooked vegetables on a large serving platter. Scatter the tofu and the tempeh cubes over the vegetables and arrange the eggs and diced lontong on top. Crumble the crackers over the gado gado. Heat the peanut sauce and drizzle the sauce over the vegetables. Finally, sprinkle fried onions on top. Serve the gado gado immediately.
