  In large saucepan or wok, heat oil and saute onion until soft, always
  stirring.  Add celery, garlic, ginger, sambal, curry and kecap manis;
  saute 2 minutes. Add green pepper and cabbage; saute 3 minutes more.
  Add shrimp and chicken, ham, pork or lamb and saute 2 minutes. Add
  rice and continue to saute until light brown. Adjust seasoning.
  
  Enright writes: "Serve with a light beer or ginger tea to quench the
  inevitable thirst fired by sambals. Nasi goreng is often served at the
  rijsttafel (Dutch for rice table), a feast of spicy dishes, crisp
  salads and fresh peanut sauce."
