Crush the onion, garlic, ginger, turmeric, and coriander into a paste.
Toast the spice paste in vegetable oil for 5 minutes, until fragrant.
Cut the zucchini into thin sticks, add the tofu cubes, and turn for 4 minutes.
Add the coconut milk, hot water, and salt to the pot and cook over low heat for 22 minutes.
Slice the rice cakes and halve the boiled eggs.
Place the rice cakes and eggs in bowls and ladle the hot vegetable broth over them.
💡 Tip: If ready rice cakes are unavailable, cool tightly cooked baldo rice in a mold; loose pilaf falls apart in the sauce.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve lontong sayur in deep bowls with cucumber pickles and chili paste if desired for a lunch plate.
