Get To Know The Cannabis Sambal Which Is The Mainstay Of A Typical Acehnese Restaurant

JAKARTA - Acehnese food lovers now have a choice of a new restaurant, Kanabu. This restaurant offers catching chicken with marijuana sauce and goat curry as one of the mainstay menus.

Eating pieces of caught chicken is more fitting when dipped with marijuana sauce. Despite the name, there is absolutely no marijuana in the ingredients. This name is given because the freshness of the chili sauce with a savory and sour taste consisting of shrimp, wuluh starfruit, lemongrass, lime leaves is addictive.

Another mainstay of the menu is mutton curry made from large pieces of boneless meat cooked in a giant cauldron with a capacity of 30-40 kilograms, about 300-400 servings for one cooking. This goat curry is made with 20 kinds of spices which makes it taste full of spice.

Restaurant manager Teuku Fitriansyah said that the presence of this restaurant is expected to be able to solve the longing of migrants from Aceh who miss their hometown food, as well as offering different menus from Acehnese dishes that were previously popular in Jakarta, one of which is Aceh noodles. Ayam Capture, consists of a male free-range chicken with soft meat, relatively small in size, fried with koja or temurui leaves, pandan leaves and various spices.

Chicken meat "sinks" under the edible leaves, so consumers have to "catch" alias look for chicken meat from a pile of fried leaves. However, the pieces of chicken caught in this restaurant are quite large, one tail is divided into four parts, so it is not difficult to find it between the koja leaves and pandan leaves.
