Well, we're off to a good start. Nasi Goreng, the treat of 1941, was a success. With lots of skepticism, I made the recipe with a couple small substitutions. The ol' husband is allergic to shrimp, so I used frozen squid instead. If that sounds off-putting, think about it: similar texture, similar mild taste. Not quite as good, but not bad. I also mis-read the call for "Ketjap manis", with turns out is a soy-based sauce, but I got sweet chili sauce instead, so I just added some soy.
1941's score card:
The judges: Husband Charlie and Comrade Dave.
The Verdict: Charlie "that's a keeper".
Dave: "put it in the rotation".
Gourmet 1, Hunger 0.
