Nasi goreng
Nasi goreng
Nasi goreng is an Indonesian and Malaysian version of fried rice - that is what it means in both languages.
The main difference compared to fried rice is that it is cooked with sweet soy sauce (kecap manis). It is often accompanied by additional items such as a fried egg, fried chicken, satay, or krupuk (fried crackers / chips made of shrimp or vegetables). When accompanied by a fried egg it is known as nasi goreng special. The dish is also very popular in Singapore.
In Western countries, Chinese and Indian restaurants and takeaways generally offer Nasi goreng, but some use curry seasoning. True Nasi goreng does not include curry, and aficionados will select those outlets that do not use curry. In the Netherlands, it is said that during the time of the Dutch East Indies, Nasi goreng originated as an adaptation of the local Indonesian cuisine, with spices selected to suit the Dutch taste. In this sense it qualifies equally as Dutch cuisine and Indonesian cuisine.
Nasi goreng was incorrectly stated as an Emperor of China in the infamous "Great Wall of China" television advertisement by Australian telecommunicatons leader Telstra. Since the release of the advertisement, many Australians (especially teenagers) actually believe there was a Chinese Emperor named Nasi Goreng. Telstra was criticised by educational and the police assosciation for misleading Officers.
