5-0 out of 5 stars A true treasure
I can't think of another book I've used more than this.The recipes are well explained and easy to follow.I've made whole "rijsttafels" from this book and it has never failed me.My only request would be an updated version with some photos.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good Eating
This book is a guide to cooking Indonesian food in the American kitchen.It begins with a brief introduction to culinary traditions in Indonesia and general cooking techniques, followed by some discussions of spices and coconut.The remainder of the book consists of recipes, organized by type of food.The chapters include: rice, satay (barbecue), soups and noodles, chicken, beef, fish, vegetables, fritters, garnishes and chips, eggs, sauces and dips, and sweets.At the end of the book are some menu suggestions for a rijsttafel (buffet), traditional herbal remedies, a glossary of ingredients, and an index.There are no photographs and very few illustrations.

While the recipes include a sampling from all the major islands (Java, Sumatra, Bali, Borneo, Sulawesi, and Madura), the focus is on Java, Sumatra, and Bali.Many of the recipes include a brief introduction explaining the cultural significance or context of the recipe.Marks has included recipes for many well-known dishes, such as nasi goreng (fried rice), satay (barbecue), rendang (coconut stewed beef), soto ayam (chicken soup), gado-gado (salad with many ingredients), and rujak (green mango salad). On the whole, the directions are clear and many of the recipes can be prepared without a lot of fuss. Marks frequently includes useful notes about which recipes can be made in advance and which freeze well. He also describes which spices are essential to a recipe, and which can be substituted without a great loss in flavor.The chapter on vegetables is titled "Vegetables for the Vegetarian," but this is a bit of a stretch, since recipes in this chapter frequently call for shrimp paste, shrimp, and one even uses ground beef.

5-0 out of 5 stars A good basics book on typical Indonesian cooking.
I have quite a few Indonesian cookbooks to supplement what I've learned from my mom. This book covers all the basics that you might not find in other Indonesian cookbooks. By this I mean the staples that you might be able to order in a restaurant to supplement fancier dishes or would likely make yourself at home if you were living in Indonesia (e.g. lontong, rempeyek kacang, sambal bajak). While Marks and Soeharjo cover regional variations, they include them side-by-side in the book rather than grouped by region--very helpful for anyone just getting started in Indonesian cooking. I also love the short section on "Spices as Medicinal Remedies"--something almost always considered in Indonesia when deciding what dishes to prepare. You'll be able to make good use of this book if you love to cook Indonesian food.

5-0 out of 5 stars Healthy, Flavorful, Easy
I was first introduced to Indonesian food at a wonderful Rijstaffel (rice table) restaurant in Utrecht, The Netherlands, in 1994.Once I returned to the States, I lost touch with this cuisine.Fortunately, I recently foundThe Indonesian Kitchen.The recipes are clearly written and easy tofollow.The ingredients needed are relatively easy to find if you have anyAsian groceries in your area (and since we have a few here in westernMontana, you should be able to find them just about anywhere).My familyloves the dishes I've prepared from this book, and it will get used often! Spice up your life and try the recipes in this book.You won't be sorry.

5-0 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE BOOK FOR INDONESIAN COOKING.
As a "meat-n-potatoes" American woman married to an Indonesian man, I have been looking for a good Indonesian cookbook for 15 years. THIS IS IT. Most other Indonesian cookbooks are written in Dutch or suffer from metric measurements.Recipes from other multi-Asian cookbooks have resulted in bland semi-chinese food.But this book results in authentic Indonesian cooking. All dishes have both English and Indonesian names so I can cook my husband recipes from his childhood.Everything I have tried has turned out delicious.Also the menu planning tips for "rice tables" or banquets help with meal planning. Spices and common ingredients are listed in Indonesian, Latin botanical, English, and Chinese or Indian if applicable. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Don't get intimidated...
As is the case with many Thai/Asian cookbooks, make sure that you have a good Asian grocery store in your area. While many things can be substituted, most substitutes are inferior, and of course the end results will not be as amazing. Yes, ginger can be used instead of galangal, lime zest instead of kaffir lime leaves, foil instead of banana leaves, but you'd lose a lot in the process.

So far I have only cooked a few of the recipes in this book with good results, and the main difference I can find between Indonesian and Thai cooking, is that Indonesian food seems more subtle, while Thai bursts with big bold flavors. This isn't a bad thing, especially when you don't feel like having a spicy curry dish. It takes a little while to get used to that.

The weirdest thing about this book is that the author isn't afraid to do some bashing of cooks and restaurants she describes to have visited while researching the book. There are numerous references to overcooked fish, horribly made this-and-thats, but don't let that intimidate you. It's delish.

5-0 out of 5 stars If only one will do, this is a great pick.
This book is a comprehensive guide to the preparation of Indonesian regional foods, as well as the culture, history, and ingredients that make the food distinctly Indonesian. Sri Owen covers internationally known favorites from every region, as well as local favorites you might know only from your family or your travels there (martabak!). I love the notes with anecdotes, history, and techniques preceding each recipe. And for non-Indos or those not familiar with Southeast Asian ingredients, the glossary of ingredients and techniques provides short descriptions with suggestions for substitutions, as well as scientific, Indonesian, and English names. This book is a much-used reference in my Indonesian cooking.

5-0 out of 5 stars Terrific Information and Recipes
I am Indonesian but grew up in the United States. It has been difficult for me to collect information, history and recipes from my native homeland, but I was so thrilled when I found this book.Sri Own gives history, methods and classic recipes that I remember my mother and family cooking for me as a kid.I wish that more people, Indonesians as well, would value the richness of the food, culture and culinary possiblibites and potential that Indonesian food has to offer.

5-0 out of 5 stars Indonesian Regional Cooking
This is not only an excellence cooking book but also a very good travelingbook. It gives you the briefing on each region of Indonesia and then presents its vanishing recipes with an easy-to- follow instruction. I am really enjoy reading this book. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Hardly authentic. Derivative recipes, not classic
I would have given this book a higher rating if it did not pretend to be traditional and authentic. It's perfectly acceptable to be derivative and creative. However, I am appalled that the authors claim authenticity and tradition in presenting the Philippine food section...adobo with ginger?!!! Shame on them for spoiling the essence of the adobo. Though there are regional differences with adobo, there is never one with ginger. And the lumpia...the presentation alone shows how "nouveau" these recipes and presentations are, one recipe even called for serrano ham!!! I would have better respect for these authors if they just admitted that these recipes have been "inspired by" traditional recipes. Instead, they just made themselves look totally ignorant and lazy. They should research next time, and their editors...they should have hired fact checkers. Pathetic.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best Indonesian Cookbooks
I have to agree wholeheartedly with the review. We came upon the book purely by accident in a used book store. My wife's mother spent many years in Indonesia before the war, and returned to Holland where she began raising her family. After emigrating to Canada, her Indonesian experiences influenced her family's tastes, and I have been the lucky recipient of her tastes by after marrying her daughter. We have tried many of the recipes in the book, and have found them all to be both authentic and super tasty. Some of the ingredients were once hard to obtain in Canada, but the more recent influx of South Asian Canadians has resulted in many of the more obscure spices becoming much more available. I am surprised that book is still available. Our copy is well used, dog-eared and well annotated.

4-0 out of 5 stars Cooking The Indonesian Way
This book was written by my husband in the late 60's before cookbooks were in vogue. It was a labour of love as he was born and grew up in Indonesia ,was interred by the Japanese and ended up in NZ where we met. During histime in camp he thought about food and how his mother prepared it. Itbecame almost an obsession as he tried to forget his hunger. The recipesare authentic and are carefully written so that they are able to befollowed by anyone unfamiliar with Indonessian cooking. His love of allthings Indonesian is shared with the reader as each chapter begins with astory or some aspect of interest about Indonesian culture or food.So it isof interest to cooks and readers.It is still worthy of interest today. Hedied in 1992 still passionate about Indonesia and its food ! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful presentation throughout - authentic food
I love the way Miller presents his stories, pictures and foods on this book.
I do notice that Miller uses substitution.For example,he indicated green onion as garnish to 'Soto Ayam'.In most parts of Indonesia, the garnish is actually Chinese eelery, not green onion.Chinese celery is usually readily available in many Asian grocery stores in the West Coast.

3-0 out of 5 stars Title: No "secrets", but plenty of good recipes
This is a wonderful book for fans of Indonesian culture and cuisine. It comes with an interactive CD-ROM that augments the content with music, videos, scalable recipes and ingredient pronunciations! Any Indonesian traveler will immediately recognize favorites such as gado-gado, tempe kering and opor ayam. The recipes are easy to follow and result in authentic-tasting food.

On the downside, the CD-ROM has a few minor problems. Navigation is slow and cumbersome, the graphics are grainy and there are spurious characters in some of the descriptions. (Perhaps due to my running it on a PC.) The content focuses mainly on Central Java, the cultural heartland of Indonesia, interesting for beginners but leaving many other areas, such as Bali, barely touched. Hardcore Indonesiaphiles will be disappointed. This also goes for the recipes - few from Lombok, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi, Kalimantan or the Moluccas. Some of the photos in the book are grainy, poorly reproduced or just not very good.

Despite the downsides, the book is well worth the price. Enjoy!

5-0 out of 5 stars This is the real thing!
Having spent eight months living in Bali, I have a homesick spot for the food I ate there. This is the first Indonesian cookbook I've seen that contains recipes for just about all the dishes I actually ate while I was there. Not foofie, fancy food, this what I, and the Balinese, ate day in and day out, whether bought from the warungs and bakso carts or served by Ibu at family dinners with friends. I haven't tried any of the recipes yet (I just got the book and CD) but from those I already make, I can say the recipes are authentic, and I want to try just about every one of them! Well done!

5-0 out of 5 stars An impressive compilation of ethic family recipes
Indonesia is the fourth largest country in the world and home to the largest Islamic population on earth. Indonesian Street Food Secrets: A Culinary Travel Odyssey is an impressive compilation of ethic family recipes that are prepared right on the sidewalk by Indonesian food vendors. Enhanced with 230 color photographs of the food and culture, Indonesian Street Food Secrets also includes an accompanying CD-ROM providing hours of movies, sounds and recipes that are customizable for their degree of "hotness" and party size. With its collection of authentic recipes, Indonesian Street Food Secrets will prove to be a unique addition to kitchen cookbook collections and is especially recommended to dining clubs wanting to celebrate the culinary traditions of the Indonesian archipelago!

5-0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Book
Although I have never been to Indonesia, nor am I an experienced cook, I found this book fascinating. It really is about the Indonesian culture as it is represented by its food. The photos are outstanding and give the reader a non-tourist view of of this intriguing land. The recipes are easy to follow and the author gives substitute ingredients if the more exotic foods can not be found. I very much enjoyed reading the information sections and can't wait to try some of the recipes. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Nice book with great pictures
This is one of three cookbooks I have on Indonesian food. There are a lot of things I like about this book. The recipes are easy to follow and there is a picture for about every dish I think. It does not contain a ton of recipes but they seem to have been chosen carefully and highlight some of the regions most famed dishes. It also gives definitions of some of the more rare ingredients. However, the one problem I have with this book is that a few of the definitions are not clear or are not correct. Kemiri nuts are not Macadamia nuts, and Kecap manis is nothing like what Americans would think of as "regular soy sauce". Despite these minor confusions I still enjoy the book and think it is especially nice for people who want a non intimidating and colorful introduction to Indonesian cuisine.
