Spiced Bamboo Shoots Curry

Hello everyone,
Did you know that bamboo shoots (Indonesian; REBUNG) can be made into delicious food. Bamboo shoots are bamboo saplings which are still very soft, slightly yellowish white in color which have extraordinary benefits. In Indonesia, bamboo shoots are often used as a special dish, made as a vegetable as a source of fiber.

Bamboo shoots are one of my and my husband's favorite foods, as bamboo shoot lovers, we like to buy bamboo shoots at the market if they are available. Actually, bamboo shoots are a bit hard to find because they are seasonal, so usually they can only be cooked a few times a year and become part of our diet.

What I like about bamboo shoots is that they have a texture similar to young coconut meat, they are very soft and have their own characteristics. Bamboo shoots also have a special taste and smell, best suited for cooking with lots of spices, thereby adding to the taste of the bamboo shoots.

Maybe for some people, bamboo shoots are very strange, because they have a slightly strange smell, even my sister doesn't like bamboo shoots, she says bamboo shoots are not vegetables, it's just bamboo, not a food ingredient.

I know bamboo shoots from my mother, she likes to make bamboo shoots and stir-fried with spices and coconut milk. I can't help but drool just imagining its shape. Best mixed with some green vegetables, adding variety to the contents of sautéed bamboo shoots.

Well, this time, I will introduce you to an unusual food menu, bamboo shoot curry with thick and savory spices, perfect for eating rice with friends, especially eaten together with fried tempeh which will definitely increase your appetite. So, curious about the recipe? Come on, see the following bamboo shoot curry recipe!
