1. Preparation and Cleaning of Intestines

Before moving on to the cooking stage, cleaning the intestines is the key to achieving a delicious dish. As much as 1 kg of intestines must be washed thoroughly, then soaked in hot water to remove any remaining dirt. This process is not just a ritual, but an important step that affects the texture and flavor of the intestines when fried later. After soaking, drain the intestines and add a fresh touch with a squeeze of lime to neutralize the fishy smell that can sometimes be bothersome.

Marinating for 10-15 minutes with lime not only makes the intestines cleaner but also allows the fresh aroma to penetrate perfectly. According to Dapur Jempol, this simple technique ensures that the spices to be used later can seep deeper, making the dish even more appetizing. After the marination process, the intestines are ready to be combined with tempting spices, ready to delight the taste buds of its enthusiasts.

2. Preparing Spicy Seasoning

Next, let’s prepare the spice mix that will add a savory touch to this delicious fried intestines. Dapur Jempol uses a special blend, starting with seven cloves of garlic, half a finger of galangal, ginger, and turmeric, along with one tablespoon of ground coriander, half a teaspoon of ground pepper, and salt to taste. All these spices are sautéed until they release an enticing aroma, creating a flavor that is ready to delight the palate.

After the spice mix releases a mouth-watering fragrance, it's time to add enough water. Now, the cleaned intestines are added to the pan to be boiled together with the sautéed spices. Cook over medium heat until the water reduces and the spices are perfectly absorbed, so that each strand of intestine is coated with rich spice flavor. With this technique, the intestines will become even more savory and ready to be fried until golden brown, creating a dish that is sure to whet your appetite!

3. Frying Intestines until Crispy

After the boiling process is complete, drain the intestines and heat a sufficient amount of oil. The intestines are then fried over medium to high heat, so that the texture becomes firm and crispy without the need for flour. Dapur Jempol recommends frying the intestines while occasionally stirring to ensure all sides cook evenly.

The oil used must be hot enough before the intestines are added. This frying process takes a few minutes, and the final result will be indicated by the brown color of the intestines, which signifies perfect doneness. When the intestines appear crispy and golden, remove them and drain from the oil.

4. Storing Fried Intestines for Longevity

According to Dapur Jempol, fried intestines cooked without flour can be stored for a long time if kept properly. Make sure the cooked and cooled intestines are stored in an airtight container or tightly sealed plastic. This way, the fried intestines can last up to a month, making them suitable for snack stock or home business ideas.

This storage technique also keeps the texture of the intestines crispy, so when enjoyed later, they still taste delicious as if freshly fried. For convenience, the stored intestines can be reheated before serving.
