Indonesian Chicken curry Recipe

This yummy dish originally came from Surakarta, Central Java. Because many Indonesian like it, it becomes famous and you can find it nearly everywhere especially big cities. I remember in Blok M, South Jakarta more than 10 people with minimum equipment selling this dish  along the busy road near the shopping centre. Sometime makes me wonder if they are related lol…..! They open until late at night well….more like early morning actually. I remember once, I finished my gig at 2am and they still around…oh…I miss the chaos Jakarta, literally….this city doesn’t sleep, you can find anything 24/7 no worries 🙂 Anyhood…back to TONGSENG, the taste is similar  with typical Indonesian curry only it got cabbage and tomatoes and also a lot lighter. You can change the meat to any type of meat you like…..easy right 🙂
