I started to learn how to cook Indonesian food and this one is a keeper. It's a mild chicken curry style dish that is a fav among kids here. My sister-in-law gave me this recipe and it turned out pretty good the first time I tried. Hopefully others will enjoy this too.

Steps:

- Boil the eggs and peel, set aside.
- Sauté the tofu in oil until lightly brown.
- Blend the shallots, garlic, candlenuts, turmeric powder, coriander powder, salt and pepper in a food processor or blender until it forms a smooth paste.
- Sauté the paste in oil (about 1-2 Tbsp.) for a few minutes.
- Once bumbu is sautéed, add 1500 ml water and chicken.
- Stir occasionally until it comes to a boil.
- Add 2 pieces of lemon grass that have been bruised, 5-7 pieces of lime leaves, galangal (about the size of thumb, bruised) & 3 bay leaves.
- Bring to a boil... add tofu and eggs.
- For extra flavor you can sauté sliced shallots to sprinkle in once cooked.
