Start by cleaning the chicken intestines thoroughly under running water. Cut them into 5-cm pieces and set aside.
Heat the cooking oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots to the pot. Sauté until they become fragrant and slightly golden.
Add the sliced red chili to the pot and continue stirring for 1 minute.
Add the bay leaves and bruised galangal root. Stir for another minute to release their aroma.
Add the chicken intestines to the pot and stir until they are slightly browned and curled up, around 5 minutes.
Pour the coconut milk and water into the pot and bring it to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, and green beans.
Simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded.
Cut the firm tofu into cubes and gently add them to the pot. Stir occasionally.
Season the soup with salt and white pepper according to taste.
Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 10 minutes to ensure the tofu absorbs the flavors.
Turn off the heat and let the soup rest for a few minutes.
Serve the High Protein Sayur Usus hot, accompanied by steamed rice for a complete meal.
