Babi kecap is an Indonesian braised pork with sweet soy sauce (kecap manis).[1][2] It is a Chinese Indonesian classic, due to its simplicity and popularity among Chinese Indonesian households. It is also popular among non-Muslim Indonesians, such as the Balinese, Ambonese, Bataks, Minahasans, and Dayaks, and in the Netherlands among the Indo-Dutch, where it is known as babi ketjap, owing to colonial ties with Indonesia. In the Netherlands, the dish might also be served within an opulent rijsttafel banquet.[3]
The dish is believed to be based on Southern Chinese braised pork in soy sauce know in Indonesia as babi taotjo[4] without the taotjo because of its unavailability in the past. However, it is more Indonesian in nature, because of the mild sweetness introduced by Indonesian kecap manis (sweet soy sauce). It is sometimes prepared with a sweet chili sauce.[5]
In Bali, babi kecap is consumed at festivals such as Galungan and Nyepi.[6]
