What drives the calories

The porridge is mostly rice and water, so it has fewer calories than a plate of rice.
Toppings such as cakwe, crackers and fried soybeans add about 150 kcal.
Sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) and the yellow gravy add sugar and fat.

How to make it lighter

Ask for no cakwe, or take only a few pieces.
Add a boiled egg for protein instead of satay.
Use less sweet soy sauce.
