The following highlights some of the popular Traditional Cocossian Foods. If you manage to be in an Cocossian restaurant or you are visiting Cocos Island, I recommend the following:
1. Ayam Begana (Chicken Begana)
This curry recipe originated in Cocos Island and has spread to other countries in Oceania. Roast the meat until the skin is dark or black and caramelised but not charred. When ready, the chicken is served with steamed white rice, sambal terrace, tomato slices and cucumber.
3. Nasi Goreng Berkat (Fried Rice)
It is a pre-cooked rice, usually fried in a little oil and seasoned with shallots, garlic, chilli or ginger. The fried rice (originally from Indonesia) is known for its generous use of sweet soy sauce, which gives it a deeper, spicier flavour than other types of fried rice. Nasi goreng is usually served with eggs. They are usually served with rice or fried.
