Our Food

Popular dishes and premium snack options

Sambal Roa

A traditional Manadonese chilli relish made with smoked roa fish, a small fish native to the waters of North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Blended with fresh chillies and aromatic spices in just the right proportions, it offers a distinctive smoky, savoury and spicy flavour.

Available in 140grams jar size.

Cakalang Fufu Rica

A traditional North Sulawesi dish made with cakalang (skipjack tuna), which is slowly smoked to create its distinctive smoky aroma and firm texture. The smoked fish is then cooked with a blend of traditional Manadonese spices, fresh chillies and ginger, creating a rich, savoury and spicy dish with a bold, authentic flavour.

Available in 300grams pouch.

Ayam Tuturuga

A traditional Manadonese chicken dish, often described as the Indonesian version of chicken curry. Tender chicken is slowly cooked in a rich, creamy coconut milk sauce with fresh herbs, aromatic spices, ginger, chilli and hint of mint leaves. Fragrant pandan, mint leaves and Indonesian basil add a distinctive aroma, creating a deliciously savoury and spicy dish.

Available in 500grams (half chicken).

Cakalang Kecombrang Cabai Ijo

A flavourful Manadonese dish made with smoked skipjack tuna, fresh green chillies and a blend of aromatic Indonesian spices. What makes this dish special is kecombrang (torch ginger flower), which adds a unique, fragrant and refreshing aroma. With a milder heat than traditional rica dishes, it offers a distinctive balance of savoury, aromatic and gently spicy flavours that appeals to a wide range of palates.

Available in 300grams pouch.

Oseng Cumi Cabai Ijo

One of I am Spicy's best-selling dishes, featuring carefully selected premium salted squid with generous-sized pieces and a tender, pleasantly chewy texture. Unlike ordinary salted squid, ours is chosen for its quality and balanced saltiness. Sautéed with fresh green chillies and a fragrant blend of traditional Indonesian spices, a touch of coconut milk adds a rich, creamy depth to this uniquely savoury and gently spicy dish. A true customer favourite, loved for its distinctive flavour.

Available in 300grams pouch.

Ayam Goreng Lengkuas

One of I am Spicy's best-selling favourites, this traditional Indonesian fried chicken is marinated and cooked with a rich blend of aromatic spices until the flavours reach deep into the meat, right to the bone. Fried until golden and crispy, it is tender and juicy on the inside, with generous amounts of crispy, flavourful galangal flakes that are deliciously fragrant and not greasy. Naturally non-spicy, it is served with traditional Indonesian sambal terasi (chilli and shrimp paste relish) on the side for those who enjoy an extra kick.

Available in 500grams (half chicken) portions. So loved that some customers even take it overseas!

Premium Snack Selection

Discover a selection of traditional Indonesian snacks, freshly prepared using carefully selected, quality ingredients. Our current selection includes Chicken Pastel (crispy pastry filled with seasoned chicken), Panada (a savoury pastry filled with spiced skipjack tuna), Lalampa (grilled sticky rice rolls filled with seasoned skipjack tuna and wrapped in banana leaves), and Cucur Gula Aren (traditional palm sugar cakes with a soft, chewy centre and crisp edges). Looking for something else? Additional snack selections can also be prepared upon request, subject to advance order.

Founder

Chef Yosefine

My love for cooking and good food was deeply inspired by my late mother and sister, whose cooking and family recipes have shaped much of what I cherish about Indonesian cuisine.

What began as a passion for sharing good food with friends gradually grew into I am Spicy. Over the years, I have continued to develop and refine our family recipes, bringing my own ideas and touch while staying true to the authentic flavours I grew up with.

For me, good food is about more than taste. It is about passion, quality, care and the joy of sharing something special with others.
