Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups coconut milk
2 cups water
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
salt to taste
1 whole bay leaf
2 cups long grain rice, rinsed and drained
4 eggs
1 cucumber
1 cup oil for frying
1 cup raw peanuts
1 (4 ounce) package white anchovies, washed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
