7 kare kare recipes

This delicious recipe was one that we were taught in a Balinese cooking class at Casa Luna Cooking School last week. It’s so easy to make and really flavoursome. We’re not massive fans of really spicy food so this dish was perfect as it’s not too hot. Most of the ingredients are readily available in the UK, but incase you struggle to get hold of any we’ve added substitutes which should work just as well. Hope you enjoy!
