Savory and Appetizing Indonesian Traditional Black Beef Soup from Surabaya. Authentic Recipe of Rawon Surabaya.

Things to know about Rawon Surabaya Recipe

The Indonesian Traditional Black Meat Soup is known as “Rawon” locally. It is a unique, beef stew dish with a black-colored broth. Rawon originated from the East Javanese region of Indonesia, in the city of Surabaya. This dish is recently nominated as the best soup dish in Asia. In the past, Rawon is considered a peasant dish, but due to its popularity, the royalties took interest in it and enjoyed the dish. The dark color of the broth comes from a special spice used in this dish, called keluak (kluwak), the Indonesian Black Nut. Kluwak is highly toxic when eaten raw and needs to be fermented before use. This spice is then dried and ground together with various spices to create the earthy, sour taste of the broth. This dish is amazing when eaten during cold weather, as it gives a warm feeling to your body from the heat of ginger and chili. This is a dish you would not want to miss!

NOTES

A faster alternative for this dish is to cook it with a pressure cooker, which cut down the cooking time to 30 minutes.
COOKING TIPS:
Use an older keluwak for a tastier broth, you can know whether a keluwak is old by shaking it near your ear, and if you hear rattling sounds, it’s old.
You can replace the water used to boil with beef stock to produce a richer taste.
Any part of beef is okay to use in Rawon, but the ones with a high percentage of fat produce the best result.
SERVE WITH:
The Rawon is best served with warm white rice, shrimp crackers, key lime juice, and crispy fried shallot.
