Learn how to make this popular Javanese street food, mie godog. Noodles are served in an aromatic broth and other fixings like eggs, chicken, and veggies. They are comfort food for the locals.
Toast the candlenuts on a dry pan for about 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Put the red onion, garlic, candlenuts, and oil in a food processor and process them into a paste
If you use dry noodles, boil them in boiling water and only half-cook them because we will boil the noodles again later. Rinse with fresh water after that and set aside
Preheat your wok or skillet. Add the ground spices (which already has oil in it) and shrimp paste and stir fry for about 3 minutes or until aromatic. Add the chicken slices and cook until they turn opaque. Add the chicken broth along with the seasoning. Bring to a simmer
When it comes to a simmer add the beef balls (if using), shrimp, and the vegetables. Let the broth comes back to a simmer and then add the half-cooked noodles. Carefully and gently stir the noodles to mix with the broth. Don't over stir and break the noodles into pieces. Let it boil (godog) for about 1-2 minutes. Have a taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Remove from the heat and serve immediately with acar timun (if you make some) and bawang goreng
