Gado-gado is a traditional Indonesian salad made with a colorful mix of blanched and steamed vegetables such as long beans, cabbage, bean sprouts, spinach, and potatoes, combined with tofu, tempeh, and hard-boiled eggs. The dish is generously drizzled with a rich, savory peanut sauce, and topped with crispy fried shallots and crackers (krupuk) for added texture.

Flavorful, wholesome, and satisfying, gado-gado is both a popular street food and a home-cooked favorite across Indonesia. It’s a perfect choice for vegetarians and anyone looking to enjoy a healthy yet indulgent meal.
