Karedok [SEP] country of origin
Karedok
Karedok is a raw vegetable salad in peanut sauce from West Java, Indonesia. It is one of the Sundanese signature dish. It originally included cucumbers, bean sprouts, cabbage, legumes, Thai basil, and small green eggplant, covered in peanut sauce dressing, but there are now many variations. It is very similar to gado-gado, except all the vegetables are raw, while most of gado-gado vegetables are boiled, and it uses kencur, Thai basil and eggplant. Karedok is also known as
selection of vegetarian dishes and meat substitutes that may be served. Dishes such as "gado-gado, karedok, ketoprak, tauge goreng, pecel, urap, rujak" and "asinan" are vegetarian dishes. However, dishes that use peanut sauce, such as "gado-gado, karedok" or "ketoprak", might contain small amounts of shrimp paste, called "terasi", for flavor. Shrimp paste is also often used to add flavour to spicy "sambal" chili paste served with "lalap"
