About this dish

Gado-gado is an Indonesian salad, in the Betawi and broader Indonesian sense, of raw, slightly boiled, blanched, or steamed vegetables together with hard-boiled eggs, boiled potato, fried tofu and tempeh, and sliced lontong (compressed rice cake wrapped in a banana leaf), dressed with a peanut sauce. In 2018, the Indonesian government promoted gado-gado as one of five national dishes of Indonesia, alongside soto, sate, nasi goreng, and rendang. The dish is Indonesian in its general form and specifically Betawi (the Jakarta region) in origin, and is found across the country with local variations.
