Craving for Sambal Hitam Pahang..?
Here is the the recipe that you can follow for a piquant taste..
*Ingredients
100gm dried anchovies (ikan bilis)
100gm belimbi (belimbing buluh/belimbing asam)
25gm bird’s eye chilli (when I triped the recipe, I used a mixture of 60% chilli padi and 40% chilli merah)
2 red onions (bawang besar)
5 shallots (bawang merah)
125ml oil
Salt to taste (omitted)
Sugar if needed (omitted)
*Procedure
1. Rinse anchovies, drain and coarsely pound them. Set aside. (I pulsed the anchovies with my food processor)
2. Blend shallots and bird’s eye chilli together into a fine paste. Set aside.
3. Puree the buah belimbing and set aside.
4. Thinly slice red onions.
5. Heat a wok on medium heat and put in oil. Cook onions until it looks translucent and soft. Put in shallot chilli mixture. And cook until it looks slightly golden.
6. Put in anchovies and cook until it looks lightly golden and seems dry.
7. Put in belimbi paste and turn heat to low, cook until the mixture turns dark brown and crispy.
So try it your own..
