What do u know about PECEL ?

Pecel is one of many kind traditional Indonesian culinary that came from Eastern Java.

Most people think pecel is made only for vegetarian. Well, it's not 100% false, pecel contains many kind veggies. Pecel contains veggies such as cabbages, long beans, spinaches, bean sprouts, and the original Indonesian veggies like kembang turi, papaya leaves, and Indonesian basil (kemangi).

It looks like salad (as a dressing) bcause contains so many veggies, but pecel is served with rice, many side dishes, crackers, and the delicious spicy-peanut-sauce which made from peanuts, Indonesian lime leaves, tamarinds, kencur, etc.

U can also choose ur side dishes like :

• Sunny eggs (Indonesia : ceplok), 
• Chicken / beef offals, 
• Snail satays,  
• Tahu / tempe (made from soybean), 
• Salted duck eggs,
• Martabak (made from veggies and eggs fried inside the soft cover), etc. 

The crackers u can choose is rice crackers (Indonesia : karak) or peyek kacang (made from peanuts, flour, and traditional coriander).
Eventough their origin place is Eastern Java, u can find this kind of food in so many place in / near Java island like i did. My favourite place to get this food in my city is in :
