Gulai (Indonesian curry) is a rich, flavorful Indonesian spice mix that produces a yellow, savory, and fragrant sauce. It’s made from main ingredients such as shallots, garlic, turmeric, coriander, galangal, ginger, chilies, cumin, lemongrass, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon. It’s cooked with coconut milk to create a thick or thin sauce for meat dishes (goat, beef, chicken) or seafood. This seasoning creates a savory, spice-rich flavor and is often a favorite during holidays.
