Finishing the babi ketjap — 1 uur + 40 minutes

Heat a bit of oil in a Dutch oven and add the pieces of pork, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. Cook them until all sides are beautiful golden brown, if you cooked them in batches transfer them all back to the Dutch oven.

Add the finely chopped onion and garlic for a few minutes. Add the ground cumin and coriander and after another minute also add the lime juice. Turn down the heat and for more flavor you can also add the squeezed halved limes. Add a large dash of water along with ketjap and ginger syrup and let it simmer on low heat for about 1,5 hours with the lid on.

Make sure there’s enough water in the pan during simmering, if the water has evaporated completely the stew can easily burn. As soon as the meat has become tender you can remove the squeezed lime and season the stew with more spices, ginger syrup and/or ketjap.

Serve with rice and if you like an easy cucumber salad, atjar tjampoer and emping or krupuk. Enjoy!
