Around the globe, there are many different ways of preparing Nasi Goreng. The only constant ingredient is rice; everything else is determined by the cook's taste and availability of ingredients. For many Indonesians, meat is too expensive, so tofu or merely the eggs are used for protein. Whatever you choose to use, we're confident you will enjoy this treat, which can be served as a main dish when accompanied with meat or a delicious side dish.
