Prepare the aromatics: bruise the galangal and lemongrass stalks. If using fresh tamarind, soak the pulp in hot water and strain to get the juice.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
In a large pot, combine water or broth, bruised galangal, bruised lemongrass, and bay leaves. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Add the harder vegetables first, such as corn, peanuts, and melinjo nuts. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until they start to soften.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Add the remaining vegetables (e.g., long beans, chayote, eggplant). Continue to simmer until all vegetables are tender but not mushy, about another 10-15 minutes.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 5
Stir in the tamarind paste. Add salt and sugar (if using) to taste. Simmer for a final 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The soup should have a pleasant sour and savory taste.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 6
Remove the galangal and lemongrass stalks before serving. Serve hot, or allow to cool to room temperature. Sayur Asem is delicious on its own or with steamed rice and other Indonesian side dishes.
