Gulai Jamur
Mushroom curry is a delicious and hearty Indonesian dish, served completely plant-based! The soft mushrooms absorb the thick, savory coconut milk sauce, combined with the fragrant spices that are typical of gulai dishes. Without animal ingredients, this dish still presents a deep flavor, a combination of savory, slightly spicy and the aroma of spices that whet the appetite. Delicious served warm with white rice, lontong, or ketupat, perfect for everyday meals or special occasions!
