Asam Pedas Daging Tetel is a traditional Malay beef stew, usually served with rice, fried salted fish, ulam, sambal belacan and stir fried vegetables.
On the second day of Raya, it is tradition in Ili’s family to cook this dish. After a first day of indulging in rich and indulgent classics like rendang, lontong, kuah lodeh, lemang and ketupat – this tangy, spicy beef stew was the reset the family needs.
This isn’t just a festive dish, it’s also reserved for moments like birthdays, graduations and promotions! It’s the kind of recipe that shows how food becomes part of family tradition, appearing again and again during life’s important milestones.
