Gado-Gado is an Indonesian salad of slightly boiled, blanched, or steamed vegetables and hard-boiled eggs, boiled potato, fried tofu, and tempeh (deep-fried fermented whole soybeans), and lontong (compressed rice cake cut into small cubes), served with a spicy peanut sauce dressing. As you can see, it is an entire meal in itself.
Apparently, Gado Gado means ‘mix – mix’ in Indonesian, so that solves the mystery of how the salad is made. You just take all the yummy ingredients mentioned above and, well, mix-mix them up.
According to Wikipedia, it is one of the 5 national dishes of Indonesia! Wow, that’s something. So this summer if you are in the mood for some Indonesian food but you want to try something other than the famous Indonesian Nasi Goreng (yes, it is also one of the 5), just try some Indonesian mix-mix salad! You will definitely add it to your top 5 as well.
