Loved it! A hit with the family and so easy to make!
Imagine a Dutch office on a regular Thursday afternoon in May. Everyone has their lunchbox with like cheese sandwiches at lunch. I'm always eating strange stuff, but people notice I have a regular looking lunchbox with me today (instead of some salad, soup, whatever). Lunchtime comes and I open my lunchbox. Coworkers are curiously looking to see if they can take a peak at my sandwich. Is it really a regular old sandwich? They smell peanut butter and jokingly ask if I accidentally took my 5 year old's lunch with me. Then the sandwich opens up and I get out the vegetables I kept in a seperate container. Cucumber, green beans and some taugé go on top. Then I get out my tiny containers, one with ketjap manis and one with some fried onion and but that on top. My coworker says "Wait a minute is that supposed to be gadogado... on bread?" The man is semi-insulted but intrigued at the same time. I enjoy my lunch and get back to work. Co-workers joke about me never being able to bring a "normal" lunch.
Fast forward to today (Friday). I get to the office and the co-worker that was slightly insulted yesterday is already there. He shows me his lunchbox. It's the ingredients for a gadogado sandwich.
Absolutely delicious!
Okay just made this and I can see myself eating this every day! So easy and so good!
Hey! What's a healthy store-bought crispy fried onion option? Or should I just add a slice of regular onion if I don't have these? Yellow or red?
Hi, I’d love to try this recipe, looks delicious, but can I substitute the cucumbers with any other veggies, maybe zucchini…?
Thanks 😊
