Do you know what is urap and gado-gado?

What is urap?

Urap is Javanese (ethnic group of Indonesia) style salad. Its blanched vegetables in spicy coconut dressing. It's same like sald, but it's the spicy one.
Do you like salad, if you like why you do not try urap ? Give something new to your salad!. You can serve urap as dinner or lunch appetisers, BBQ party, potluck, picnic, etc. I would like to share my fail proof urap recipe.Its fresh, light, low calorie, healthy, high in fiber, delicious, cheap and easy to make. You do not have need special cooking skill for fixing urap.

Then, what is gado-gado?

Gado-gado (in Indonesian or Betawi language), also called Lotek (in Sundanese) for its cooked version - differed from lotek atah or karedok for its fresh and raw version of the vegetable covered with peanut sauce and pecel (Javanese language) is an Indonesian dish comprising a vegetable salad served with a peanut sauce dressing. It is thought to have originally been a Sundanese dish. It is widely served from hawkers carts, stalls (warung) as well as in restaurants and hotel both in Indonesia and worldwide.
Gado-gado is part of a wide range of Indonesian dressing & salad combinations, along with lotek, pecel and karedok. In many places, to retain authenticity in both the production and flavor, the peanut sauce is made in individual batches, in front of the customers. However, since the dish has gained popularity (because of the increase of Asian-themed restaurants) Gado-gado sauce is now mostly made ahead of time and cooked in bulk, although this is probably more common in Western restaurants rather than in Indonesia. Compared to Western and Indonesian salads, Gado-gado has much more sauce in it. Instead of being used as a light dressing, the vegetables should be well coated in the sauce.
