Originally from Indonesia, Gado Gado is a street food favourite.

Radishes, cucumber, Chinese cabbage, crunchy tofu. At it's heart is a truly delicious, spicy peanut

dressing that brings it all together.

Before I get cracking on the salad itself I need to make

the special Gado Gado dressing.

We've got 120 grams here of peanut butter. Then we're gonna go in with some

garlic and then we've got lime. Normally around 2 limes goes in.

Soy sauce, a tablespoon goes in, about a tablespoon of fish sauce. 1 tablespoon of tamarind

paste. You can get this in the supermarkets now. And then 50 grams of

palm sugar and this is very important, you know sweet and sour.

I'll put a little swig of olive oil in there and you can spice it up as much as

you like. I'll go one chili. You can leave the seeds in or take it out depending on

how hot you want it and then just whiz it up.

That goes into a nice serving dish. I'm gonna put it right around the edge of

this bowl. Next the salad. I've got some bean shoots here, we've got some really lovely

spinach, Chinese cabbage, tomatoes, red cabbage. I've got some beetroot that I

dug up. Look how beautiful that is and the colour. Whoa! What a wonderful way to

love your five a day. I've got some tofu. You can cook it. I'm gonna do that to half

a little pack here. Just a little bit into a pan and we can just keep it moving. My

other cooked ingredients are boiled eggs and new potatoes. Perfect for soaking up

all the flavours of that dressing. So look at this tofu now. It's still very soft in

the middle and it's getting crispy on the sides.

Let's serve up. Display this in and around. Uncooked tofu at the bottom. You

know it's kind of getting overloaded with stuff now. And just have the

prawn crackers raining on top and this is kind of what it's all about really now

guys. We just scrape from the sides of the bowl to the middle and look there we

go everything's mixed up. Prawn crackers in on top. Let's have a little try. I just

love it. Everything food wise is happening in that mouthful. Oh

absolutely gorgeous.
