I used drumsticks rather than a whole chicken and left out nutmeg. Pretty tasty.

WOW! First off, let me say that this is a very unpretentious looking dish, and that being said, looks can be deceiving! From my first bite there was some warm familiarity, as if I had eaten this as a child, and loved it. Now I can't be sure if I had anything similar, but if I had, I KNOW I would have loved it. Usually, dishes with this amount of soy sauce turn out syrupy from added sugar, and it was a plus that yours didn't have any. Very mild in flavor, young and old adored this, with no one flavor being the dominate one outside of the chicken. What sauce was there gave the chicken and the rice bed a delicate sweetness that rivaled any comfort food. I may not have an Indonesian grandmother to pamper me with this dish, but at least I "feel" that I do, and that is the fabulous nature of sharing foods from other cultures. Thank you. And thank your grandmother. Tell her this was a hit in every way!!!
