Opor ayam

Indonesian chicken curry is based on an aromatic combination of coconut milk and numerous spices such as lemongrass, tamarind, cinnamon, galangal, palm sugar, coriander, garlic, and shallots. The dish is typically prepared with bone-in pieces such as thighs or drumsticks, or sometimes even a whole chicken that is cut into pieces. The dish is usually associated with Java and it belongs to a wider group of opor dishes that employ the coconut milk braising technique. Opor ayam is typically enjoyed at Eid al-Fitrat – a religious festival that celebrates the end of Ramadan. It is usually accompanied by rice, boiled eggs, or ketupat rice cakes.
