Instructions

  1. Roast the candlenuts in a frying pan or oven until lightly browned. Let cool and finely chop them into a powder-like consistency.
  2. While roasting, mix the ground beef with an egg and salt.
  3. Heat oil in a pan, and cook the onions until translucent.
  4. Add garlic, the spices, shrimp paste, and sambal chili paste. Stir for another 30 seconds and remove from heat.
  5. Mix the chopped candlenuts and the cooled spice mixture into the beef.
  6. Return the beef to a dry pan, add bruised and knotted lemongrass, and cook until browned, constantly stirring.
  7. Continue cooking until the beef releases moisture. Once almost all moisture evaporates, add coconut cream and cook until absorbed.
  8. Add salt to taste.
  9. Beat the eggs with water and celery leaves. Pour into a pan to make a thin omelet (use 2 eggs per omelet). Cook until the bottom is firm but the top is still slightly soft. Slide the omelet onto a cutting board, cooked side down.
  10. Spoon some of the beef filling covering the bottom two-thirds of the omelet. Roll tightly starting from the bottom.
  11. Garnish with spring onions. Serve with kecap manis on the side.

Notes

To make rolling easier, let the omelet cool slightly before adding the filling.You can prepare the meat filling ahead of time to save time on busy days.
