Serundeng (Fried Coconut Garnish)

Serundeng is an easy to make, but absolutely delicious fried coconut garnish with peanuts. I love this so much, I use it on basically anything. Plain rice, stir fries, meat dishes – anything. If you have a peanut allergy, you can simply take them out or substitute them for anything else, like cashews. (more…)

Sweetened only with Stevia, this cake is delicious, moist and soft.
