Soto Ayam Lontong


Sooo Happy!!!
Lontong is done!
perfect using Indonesian rice cake molds I got when I was in Indonesia.
Woohooo!
This is my beautiful yummy rice cake! named lontong.

  I actually never have soto ayam served with Lontong until I was in Lombok when I ordered soto ayam and got lontong in it! Ahhh so full tho.

Lontong is made from rice, wrapped in banana leaves and boiled for quite long but since I have presto "pressure cooker" so it takes only 40-45min. Awesome!

I used short grained rice, Indian style but I forgot the name of it. 
The thing is we don't like it but we got plenty!Oh boy. 

This is an experiment also n glad I could make it into Lontong and taste better!

I boiled with pinch of lime stone I got from oriental market.  Back in Indonesia, people add it in rice if they make ketupat *coconut leaves rice cake* to make the rice solid n soft.


Usually I eat with hard boiled egg, vermicelli noodles and rice.
If you wanna spicy then add sambal, that would be good choice to eat it with.
To be honest the making of yellow broth this time, I had ready one in a jar, 
it's "Bumbu soto ayam, chicken soup seasoning, Cap Ibu (mother brand)
Resep tradisional asli Indonesia.
Bumbu soto ayam (click that)

I got it in Tampa. Just added a pinch of salt, some kaffir lime leaves, galangal n ginger roots fresh.
Boiled with chicken wings till they are soft.
add potatoes if you like.
