Pindang

Pindang is a special fish soup that comes from Indonesia. To make it, you need fish and spices like galangal, lemongrass, and tamarind.

First, you catch a fish and clean it, which means taking the yucky stuff out of its tummy. Then, you put it in a pot of water with all the spices and let it cook for a few hours until the fish is soft and tender.

When it's ready, you can eat the fish and drink the broth. The broth is really tasty because the spices make it extra flavorful. Sometimes, people will add vegetables like tomatoes or mushrooms to make the soup even better.

People in Indonesia really like pindang and eat it a lot. It is a special food that is very yummy and good for you because it has a lot of protein from the fish.
