Petty Pandean-Elliott, the acclaimed Indonesian chef, author and food consultant, celebrates the regional dishes of the Indonesian archipelago through approachable and delicious vegetarian recipes. This collection makes Indonesian cooking both practical and inspiring. From fiery sambals and crisp pickles to warming stews and vibrant vegetable dishes, each recipe showcases the beauty of Indonesia s plantbased traditions.

Dishes such as Gado-Gado with Peanut Sambal, Jackfruit Rendang, and Pickled Pineapple highlight Indonesia s rich tapestry of recipes, from the bold spices of author s hometown of Sulawesi to the refined ceremonial fare of Bali, and beyond. Petty also introduces reimagined classics that reflect the dialogue between her native Indonesia and her adopted British home. Whether it s a tofu, chickpea, and kale salad with tahini sambal or a pasta with tempeh, ginger, and spicy tomato sauce, these thoughtful adaptations illustrate how traditional Indonesian ingredients can blend seamlessly with European techniques and local produce. This book is designed for home cooks of all skill levels, whether new to Indonesian cuisine or seeking to expand their plant-led repertoire with confidence and creativity.

The Indonesian Vegetarian Table is a tribute to a way of eating that has nourished generations

where local ingredients, ancestral knowledge, and bold flavors converge in dishes that are as satisfying as they are sustainable.
