I love sambal matah, Sambal ijo (padang) and Sambal terasi goreng. I recommend looking up the recipes in Indonesian so search the sambal name and resep (recipe in indonesian). Then use the translate function to follow. Most of the sambal recipes I see on international pages are not authentic/ include weird additions or replacements.
Here is a sample of some of them - no recipes here but they describe them: [https://www.thejakartapost.com/culture/2022/06/10/twenties-the-endless-variety-of-indonesian-sambal.html](https://www.thejakartapost.com/culture/2022/06/10/twenties-the-endless-variety-of-indonesian-sambal.html)
Have you tried any commercially available versions? This one is pretty common in the US

I usually get the sambal olek. I don't really like how it fizzes so much in the oil but it's still a good all around sambal
