Egg Rendang - Rendang Telur

After I made Beef Rendang recently, I found that Ummi fr Home Sweet Home made Egg Rendang and being typical me, when I just learned about making something new, I tend to make them a lot. I Immediately boiled some eggs and decided to take it up a notch by deep-frying them too. I love to deep-fry hard-boiled egg. I have done it for my Sambal Telur / Egg Sambal before.

I must say this Egg Rendang / Rendang Telur is the easiest rendang to make. Unlike beef or chicken rendang that take hours to make/cook, this Rendang Telur takes less than an hour. That may sound long to some but if you have ever made rendang before, any kind of rendang that is, it will take hours to get them 'blend' together. So if you are running out of time or just to want a rendang dish but like me, too lazy to make something tedious, do give this Egg Rendang / Rendang Telur a try.
