This is an Indonesian vegetable dish which can be served at room temperature or hot. Most of the ingredients are easy to find. The trasi or belachan(shrimp paste) can usually be found at the asian grocers. The fresh coconut can be substituted for desicated coconut, but you will need to sprinkle 1/4 boiling water over the coconut to plump it up. The chilli paste can be left out.
