Sarirasa Semoor Djawa Spice Paste helps you prepare a traditional Javanese dish with a rich, aromatic and slightly sweet flavour. This Indonesian seasoning paste is a versatile base for meat, fish, eggs, tofu, tempeh or vegetables. Frying the paste in oil first releases the aromas of onion, garlic, pepper, cloves and nutmeg.

Add your chosen ingredients, then water and optionally coconut milk (santen) to make a sauce that can simmer and reduce. The supplied preparation method uses 500 g of pork or chicken and 1½ cups of water. The stated heat level is mild. Serve Semoor Djawa with steamed rice and Indonesian side dishes.
