  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method

--------  ------------  --------------------------------

  1                cup  brown sugar

  1                cup  soy sauce

     1/2           cup  water

  1              slice  galangal -- sliced in coins (1 to 2 slices)

  1              piece  star anise

Put the sugar in a small saucepan and place it over a medium-high flame.

Stir until the sugar begins to clump together and then melt. Continue

stirring until the sugar is completely melted, but do not allow it to

burn. Remove from heat--the sugar will continue to cook for a while--and

allow it to cool slightly. 

Stir in rest of the ingredients. CAUTION! The sugar is still hot, and the

liquid may splatter. 

Return the saucepan to medium heat, bring it to a boil and stir to

dissolve the sugar and reduce the liquid to a syrupy consistency. 

Strain, cool and store refrigerated. 

Variations: Use palm sugar instead of brown sugar if you can find it. 

Add 1-2 teaspoons of molasses for a richer flavor. 

Makes 2 1/2 cups (10 one-quarter cup servings)

Kecap manis (pronounced like "ketchup") is a ubiquitous ingredient in

Indonesian cooking. If you are unable to find it at your local Asian

market, this recipe is an approximation. This soy-based sauce is the

origin of the word "ketchup," even though the original Indonesian version

contains no tomatoes.
