A four levels addition of RPO (0.0 g, 1.5 g, 3.0 g and 4.5 g) were added to siumay sauce. The physical characteristics (viscosity, emulsion stability), sensory evaluation (hedonic test and duo-trio test) of the sauce, and the retinol equivalent of fortified siomay sauce were evaluated. The result showed that viscosity of siomay sauce increased with increasing addition of RPO into the sauce. The hedonic test revealed that the overall preference of original siomay sauce added with 4.5 g of RPO was not significantly diferent from the controll. In addition, siomay sauce enriched with 4,5 g RPO could increase 325.22 ?g retinol equivalents (RE) or equal to 38.26 % of the RDA of vitamin A for lactating woman.
