Answer 2

Bali Chicken likely to have a peanut sauce with it like Chicken Satay (Squewered chicken pieces grilled with the sauce on them) normally served in Bali with white steamed rice.

Sambal i seem to remember is a spicey sauce so likely its a Beef in a hot chilli type sauce. Though i think the word Sambal refers to a type of sauce not the flavour of it (like hot sauce or creme sauce).

Answer 3

both are roughly the same except when it comes to protein. ALMOST ALL veggies include a good amount of protein; fresh fruit does not.

Answer 4

The word fruits has different meanings depending on context.
