Serundeng - is a crispy spiced coconut with peanuts. You served this with rice or as a condiment at a barbecue, with satay sauce. It tastes sweet and salty. Eating serundeng brings back memories of my childhood. Our family had a lovely friend called Dee, she was from Indonesian and she was an amazing cook. I loved her Serundeng it reminds me of Summer.
