Results
The results are perfect. I am very happy to be able to make special peanut sauce to stock up for Ramadan. My husband loves pecal, so making dishes like this for him makes him smile with happiness. Later, when it's time to serve, I can do so quickly and easily.
All you have to do is boil all the vegetables you want to mix and prepare the peanut sauce, then mix it with water. Everything tastes delicious. This sauce can also be used for salad; it's already very tasty with just fresh cucumber. Trust me, dishes like this look simple, but they are a quick way to serve a meal. In Indonesia, pecal seasoning like this is often stocked in large quantities because it has a very long shelf life, lasting 1 to 2 months in the refrigerator
