Stale curry is still safe to consume as long as it doesn't smell bad and mucus appears on the surface.

Brilio.net - Typical Indonesian food is always successful in making the tongue sway. One dish that is popular with many people is gulai, a coconut milk dish made from a mixture of various herbs and spices.

If curry usually contains beef or chicken, you can be creative with ingredients according to your taste. One type of curry that would be a shame to miss is cempedak or jackfruit curry.

Apart from the filling ingredients, the key to the deliciousness of curry lies in the sauce which is rich in spices. Moreover, there is the addition of coconut milk which makes the cempedak curry taste even more delicious.

Unfortunately, cempedak curry is a dish that goes stale quickly. Especially if the cempedak curry is not heated after consumption. Usually goulash that is stale is characterized by its sour taste. This was experienced directly by YouTube user RIMBA CULINARY.

"We last cooked this two days before, right," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube RIMBA CULINARY on Tuesday (18/6).

Instead of just throwing it away, this netizen actually processed the cempedak curry again so that it remains safe for consumption. The method is quite easy, pour enough oil into a frying pan then heat it.

Once the oil is hot, add the cempedak curry into the pan. Without adding any ingredients, cook and stir the cempedak curry for 30 minutes. Over time, the texture of the cempedak curry appears to thicken and turns brown.

Remove the pan when it has been heated for 30 minutes. It looks like the cempedak curry sauce has reduced. The color of the cempedak curry is even more brownish. Don't worry, cempedak curry is still safe to consume. Reporting from healthline.com, stale curry is still safe to consume as long as it doesn't smell bad and mucus appears on the surface.

"In fact, the taste will become crispier and softer, typical of jackfruit if it has been heated 3 times," said the owner of the video.

This netizen then recommended that the cempedak curry be reheated 3 times several hours apart. This aims to make the cempedak curry safe to consume.

"It's like heating it at 10 o'clock now, heating it again at 10 tomorrow, then heating it again at 10 the next day, then the texture will be like rendang," he explained.
