Dhi of Cooking Etcera has made me craved for something with Petis which I used to have almost everyday while I was still in Sidoarjo, the city of Petis. A number of dishes in East Java province are enriched with Petis. Sidoarjo is one of the East Java cities that is used ample petis.
As a person who grew up in East Java, I know 3 variants of Petis. Petis Udang (Shrimp Paste), Petis Kupang (Tiny Shellfish Paste) and Petis Ikan (Fish Paste). I am very familiar with Petis Udang and Petis Kupang rather than Petis Ikan. Petis Ikan is well-known in Madura island (a small island in East Java province). Unlike Terasi or Belachan, Petis has a darker colour, gooey texture, stronger and richer flavour.

Krengsengan Kambing //Eastern Javanese Stewed Goat
Recipe by Cak Nono’s family, modified by me
![]() | ![]() |
Ingredients:
500 gr goat for stew
2 tbsp Indonesian sweet soy sauce ( I’d rather use Cap Bango than ABC, but since I can not find Cap Bango for purchase in Winnipeg, I use ABC instead)
1 tbsp black shrimp paste (Indonesian: petis udang)
3 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil to saute
300 ml homemade shrimp broth
3 red chilli peppers, discard the seed, finely sliced
Grind:
6 shallots
3 cloves garlic
6 bird’s eye chilies
1 tsp ground white pepper
1 large tomato
seasalt as desired
Directions:
1. Marinate goat with sweet soy sauce and petis udang for 15 – 30 minutes.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, add gound/pureed mixture, saute until fragrant. Add goatt, stir thru until the goat stiff and add broth. Cover the skillet with lid and cook in medium heat, stir occasionally until the meats are tender and the water almost evaporates.
3. Uncover the skillet, keep stirring until the oil of meats come out.
4. Add red chilli peppers, stir until soft. Remove from heat and serve with warmed rice.
Cook’s Note:
To get faster cooking process and tender meat, use pressured cooker.

Looks so good. I wish there were a place I could get goat around here, but I guess I'll have to try it with some lamb.
For sure, you can substitute for lamb, it will be faster to cook too.
