Urap

Urap (sometimes spelled urab or in its plural form urap-urap) is a salad dish of steamed vegetables mixed with seasoned and spiced grated coconut for dressing.

Urap can be consumed on its own as a salad for vegetarian meals[2] or as a side dish.

The vegetables which are usually used in urap are spinach, water spinach, young cassava leaf, papaya leaf, Chinese long beans, bean sprouts, and cabbage.

To acquire a rich taste, most recipes insist on using freshly shredded old coconut flesh or serundeng, instead of leftovers.

The shredded coconut is seasoned with ground shallot, garlic, red chili pepper, tamarind juice, galangal, salt, and coconut sugar.
