Change the chicken to fish?

or instead of pork belly, change to sayur lodeh, will go well with the chicken and basmati rice.

Fish is too challenging for me

I like sayur lodeh. Is there a recipe for dummies?

Hi Ladies,


They are vegetarian but take dairy products and egg. No garlic and onion though.

Thanks!

In that case can try vegetarian pizza/lasagna.

Homemade! Those sold in supermarkets have onion and garlic.
