Gado Gado (Indonesian Salad with Peanut Sauce)

Gado Gado, in Indonesian, literally means ‘mix-mix’, and that is exactly what you’ll be doing when pulling up to the table to enjoy this deliciously hearty salad. A plethora of veggies (green beans, cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, and radishes) act as the base for this dish. Savory tempeh, a fermented soybean product first made in Indonesia, is slathered in a sweet-spicy peanut sauce (the peanut sauce is also used as the dressing for our salad) and broiled a beautiful golden brown. The tempeh serves as a two-part protein boost with the hard boiled eggs. An overall impressive and tasty salad.
