AppId is over the quota
The idea of a penyet is simple, combine a fried item, like fried chicken or friend tempeh with your favorite sambal in a cobek (Indonesian for mortar and pestle). This bruising action is what we call penyet, literally means to flatten, this is because once you bruise the fried items together with sambal, they are going to appear flatten (or penyet), hence the name. In an ideal world, everyone will have a mortar and pestle in their kitchen, but worry not since I am giving an alternative on how to make this dish even without one.
