RSSSambal Udang (Prawn Sambal) with Roti Jala Recipe
 So, you could imagine how overjoyed I was when F gave me a bottle of her sambal tumis a few weeks ago--all done and ready-to-go in a bottle. Naturally, the first thing I did after I came home from F's was cooking up a nice serving of prawn sambal to go with my favorite roti jala (lacy pancakes)...  Happy eating! Recipe: Sambal Udang/Prawn Sambal Ingredients: 5 tablespoons sambal tumis (click here for Salt and Turmeric's easy sambal recipe) 1 quarter of a medium-sized onion 10 shrimps (peeled and deveined) Salt to taste Sugar to taste 1 teaspoon tamarind pulp (soaked with 1/4 cup of warm water and extract the juice) 1 teaspoon cooking oil Method: Heat up a wok with cooking oil and add the onions. Saute the onions until aromatic, then add in sambal and prawns. Add tamarind juice and bring the sambal udang to boil. Add salt and sugar to taste. Serve hot with roti jala/lacy pancakes. Cook's Notes: For the roti jala recipe, please click here. To purchase the roti jala mould (available in both plastic and copper), please send me an email.

post a commentThat looks really yummy and they look like they go well together! About how much sugar did you use? I don't know quite how sweet it should taste as I've not had it before, thanks! :)
.
Looks and sounds delicious! I love sambal!
.
wow, looks good! really love your food photography skills! I must try out F's recipe too.
.
No Malaysian can resist the Sambal Udang. I always make sure it must involved tamarind. Thumbs up. Color of dish just right.
.
Oh, yes, I love sambal, too! The spicier the better....
.
i love roti jala with curry.... what a nice combination !
.
This looks fantastic! Your photo really brings out the color.
.
Glad you like the sambal tumis. When i make sambal, il make them in bulk so I can freeze for later use. I will use it for making fried rice, fried noodle or just to eat with toast.
.
Manggy - sugar is optional actually so just a pinch will be enough. It's used to tone down the spiciness, if you wish. :)
.
I have never tried roti jala with sambal udang that's a great idea. I will have to try this combination and the sambal udang recipe soon.
.
Your roti jala looks so good, all rolled up and nice. The color of sambal udang dish is so appealing.

Roti jala with sambal udang sounds good. Just had roti jala yesterday from pasar Ramadan but with curry chicken.
.
Hm, never thought of eating roti jala with sambal udang. It looks purely delicious! Yummie... I hope to catch up on more cooking.. been m.i.a. a lot since i got my new job!! :-(
.
I missed home so much .. after seeing the roti jala.
.
H Bee Yin, your recipe sounds easy and looks great! Very tempted to make them especially a big bottle of sambal tumis for `just incase` but wondering if you know how long does it keep usually? Coz a bit difficult for me to get all the ingredients to make them each batch so thinking of making and storing them in a jar. Much thanks.
.
That is probably the yummiest sambal I have ever seen. The roti jala is just lovely.
.
Hey Lianne,
If you freeze it in the freezer, it can last a long time. I noticed that if you keep it in the fridge but not the freezer, it might go bad. So just freeze it. :)
.
This post is bookmarked. Got to try that sambal.
.
thanksss! hehehe, never though of the freezer thingy coz, so not use to freezing sambal lol
.
I think besides good in recommend good food, you are also a good cook! must meet u in person one day!!! :)
From Yummy Station.

My mother also have a great sambal udang recipe. I will have to call her to find out the complete recipe...I miss her sambal udang.
.
This sambal udang recipe sounds simple enough, have to try it at home. I cannot get any sambal udang in the Malaysian restaurant near my place.
.
Glad to hear that u posted Lacy pancake. I missed all the malaysian food badly. I often visited there when we were in singapore. I completly forget to buy pancake mould. Now I wanted it badly. Can u pls get one for me as a complement? I wonder how you have posted great recipes in ur website as I know it's hard to get time to post recipes there becos of visiting many good friends, going for shopping and trying to taste different restaurants there.
