Grind chilie paste ingredients and put a side./ Kisar bahan-bahan kisar dan letak sebelah.

Heat up the oil in the wok (med high) and put the chili paste in. Keep stirring for about 10min until fragrance./ Panaskan minyak dan tumis bahan kisar sehingga naik minyak dan garing.

Add sugar. Continue stirring for another 4-5min. Add in cuttlefish and cook for  for another 20 minutes. Add water is the sambal dried. Add salts and tamarind water to taste./ Masukkan gula dan goreng lagi  4-5 minit. Masukkan air jina perlu. Masukkan garam secukup rasa. Masukkan sotong dan air asam jawa. Masak sehingga sotong lembut.

Rahsia sedap sambal tumis ialah tumis bahan giling sehingga betul-betul garing. Pilihan cili kering juga penting, pastikan anda membeli yang sederhana pedas. Begitu juga dengan sotong rendam, pilih yang dikhaskan untuk sambal tumis, bukan sotong rendam untuk sotong kangkong. Nampak sama tapi rasanya berbeza.
