Saksang
Saksang or sa-sang is a savory, spicy Indonesian dish from the Batak people. It is made from minced pork or dog meat (or, more rarely, water buffalo meat) stewed in its blood, coconut milk and spices; including kaffir lime and bay leaves, coriander, shallot, garlic, chili pepper and Thai pepper, lemongrass, ginger, galangal, turmeric and ''andaliman'' (the fruit of a native shrub similar to Sichuan pepper). Although saksang is widely consumed and familiar within Batak tribes' traditions, it is more often associated with Batak Toba.

Batak Cuisine
Batak cuisine is the cuisine and cooking traditions of Batak ethnic groups, predominantly found in Northern Sumatra region, Indonesia. Batak cuisine is part of Indonesian cuisine, and compared to other Sumatran cuisine traditions, it is more indigenously preserved.

The size of the pieces also varies, as does cooking technique: some sautee the meat prior to cooking it in the sauce, while others add the diced parboiled meat directly to the sauce. In Goa and Mangalore, Sorpotel is ...

Arsik
Arsik is an Indonesian spicy fish dish of the Batak Toba and Mandailing people of North Sumatra, usually using the common carp (known in Indonesia as ''ikan mas'' or gold fish). Distinctively Batak elements of the dish are the use of torch ginger fruit (''asam cikala''), and ''andaliman'' (similar to szechuan pepper). Common Indonesian vegetables and spices such as shallots, garlic, ginger, fresh turmeric root and chili are also used. Andaliman, essential for the distinctive taste of the dish, is known to grow only in the Batak highlands of North Tapanuli and Samosir, hence this dish is regarded as being specifically of the Batak Toba and Mandailing people, who dwell in these areas. Other variations Besides gold fish or carp, saltwater fish such as rastrelliger (''kembung'') and snappers can also be used to make arsik. A meat variant of arsik also exists, with pork as the commonly cooked meat. See also *Batak cuisine *Escabeche __NOTOC__ Escabeche is the name for ...
