Rawon is a popular Indonesian soup originating from the Surabaya region of East Java. Traditionally, rawon is characterized by its black color, which comes from one of its main ingredients, the black keluak walnut. Nowadays, you can find several variations of Nasi Rawon all over Indonesia. For example, it is the use of keluak that makes Balinese Rawon soup brown instead of black. But the most popular version is still the traditional East Java version. If the ingredients are ready, we can move on to the details of the rawon recipe.
