From "The Encyclopedia of Asian Cooking" Indonesian section by Sri

* Available at Asian markets and in the Asian section of some
supermarkets. If you can't find them don't worry, the recipe will
still work OK.
The Javanese seem to like their chicken pretty well done and chewy. I
prefer mine a little more tender and fry it for a bit less than ten
minutes. It has been a while since I made this, but I believe about
seven minutes is enough for me. This chicken is delicious and also
good cold. Make lots of it.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
When deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
The argument against reduced carb diets
Its popular as hell, but it is really safe for you?
Moreover, it has been proposed that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that the resultant change in blood acid levels can result in the loss of bone, but some of the scientific studies trying to test the theory have struggled to find real evidence of deterioration of the kidneys or loss of bone.
Most of the undesirable side-effects claimed, like persistent tiredness, constipation, diarrhea, or headaches seem to pass quickly, but critics contend that low carbohydrate diets are not without permanently harmful side effects.
Superfoods containing flavonoids
(inlcudes cranberry, kale, scarlet runner bean and basil)
The nutrients known as flavonoids which are present in these fruits and vegetables show promise as anti-carcinogens.
Doctors who have been studying the properties of flavonoids suspect that they may well also have many other health benefits, amongst them, anti-asthma and anti-platelet powers.
A good number are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss program.
