My wife is Indian, and Sambal is a mainstay in many dishes. Adds a lovely heat that lingers, giving a delicious burn that can last quite a while, depending on its usage. She makes an awesome fried rice with it(and without), but it blends great with meats also. Sambal Oelek is what she uses mostly, can be found in most Oriental markets, if you can get past the rotten blood smell(of the market, NOT the Sambal)... Thai dishes many times will have it as a side dish. I made the mistake(tho a fun one it was) of dipping a spring roll in it, bring a big gob of it in my mouth. My wife laughed at me. I sweated like Niagra Falls, but enjoyed it. Pecos out- CH# 2194 jaj ngeD 'oH wa'Hu''e' neH! >Ok, >This time it's going in my rib marinade.
