Gado Gado with Rice, Indonesian Gado Gado

Gado Gado is a brilliant Indonesian salad of crunchy and juicy veggies drowned in a multi-flavored peanut sauce. The sweet, tangy and spicy sauce has an exciting mouth-feel thanks to the rustic texture of peanuts and the succulence of sautéed onions.




Here, we have combined the traditional Gado Galad salad components with rice and a crispy garnish, to make a mouth-watering one-dish meal . Arrange the Gado Gado with Rice just before serving. Till then, keep the salad chilled to retain the crunch of the veggies.


Here are a few wholesome salads that could double up as a qucik meal - Hot and Sour Noodle and Vegetable Salad , Grilled Feta and Pita Salad , Garlicky Potato and Spinach Salad , Penne Salad in Basil Dressing and Tabbouleh .

This is a classic salad and we have it as a meal. Skip the potatoes and use loads of peanut sauce and papad.
