Tomat in Indonesian means tomato. I presume the reason why this is called "sambal tomat" is because of the use of tomato in this "sambal". When you go to Indonesian restaurants, you'll probably be served with this kind of "sambal", the taste is slightly different from our "sambal tumis" because it has the intense flavour of shrimp paste. I learned this sambal from my maid and enjoyed eating it every time I made it. However, those who had "problem" with the smell and taste of shrimp paste , I don't recommend this dish to you... :)

2 green chillies - break into 2 pcs
2 red chillies - break into 2 pcs
