Selam everybody....Merhaba from Turkey.

Wingko Babat is one of the old Indonesian traditional snack (jajan Pasar) which may already exist decades ago together with other some traditional snack/ food. Made from grated coconut and glutinous rice flour as main ingredient. Wingko is very famous on the northern coast of the island of Java.

Check category Indonesian Snack (jajan pasar/ kue) for more Indonesian Kueh or snack.

The most famous Wingko is made in Semarang. It causes a lot of people who think that wingko also came from this city. Nonetheless, wingko babat actually comes from small town calls "Babat" . It is a small area in Lamongan, East Java. 

Wingko mostly has round shape but is sometimes presented in small square chunks at warm or room temperature. Has a slightly soft yet somewhat chewy texture. Sweet taste and is so aromatic from vanilla or sometimes pandan.

Today I'm going to share this favorite ever of mine in Pandan taste. You can check my previous Wingko Babat recipe for the original taste here. For this pandan flavor İ bake in oven and cut into portion, different from pancake version. But if you want to cook over pan / round shape feel free to do so, check the link İ give above.

So let's gather some ingredients and experience the traditional Indonesian sweet for your afternoon tea/ coffee.

This Peanut cookie is one of many other İndonesian old traditional cookies. İ grew up with these cookies. İ remember having these cookies every Eid Fitr holiday when my late grandmother or my family took me and siblings visited some relatives and family's friend.
At that time (around 1980's) we still could find this peanut cookie easily, at least every Eid Fitr or Christmas holiday. Until İ think around the middle 1990's it became less popular among other classic cookies (kaastengels, nastar, butter cookies, etc).

Even it became less popular compare to other classic and modern cookies, still, some small stalls sold this peanut cookie until İ didn't remember exactly when it became less and less to find especially in big cities.

İ left my homeland Surabaya around the year 2000 and started my new academic career in Jakarta and since then İ never ate or saw those cookies anymore until now year 2017 😢
But İ still remembers exactly how it tastes and İ miss it now.

Resep dalam bhs Indonesia ada dibagian bawah









Selam everybody....Merhaba from Turkey.

Indonesia has many....probably hundreds of variant of snacks. Start from traditional snacks e.g many kind of kueh basah (literally means wet snacks), fried snacks (in bahasa call gorengan) and other type of jajanan (snacks) mostly known as street food/ snack; for example batagor, siomay, kerak telur and more. 
Kueh basah are more often steamed than baked and normally have sweet taste, but some are savory as well.


Each type has very long list of snacks variant. Check some of them on my "snack" category list. And what I am going to share today is Pastel isi bihun, means fried dumpling filled with vermicelli noodle. You can fill it also with vegetable like my previous post here or mini version with beef/chicken floss here.

Just like many other Indonesian who enjoy tea/ coffee time with many kind snacks with it, I made this snack for my light breakfast or just evening coffee.

There are two parts should prepared to make this snack; filling and skin shell. I usually make vermicelli noodle first before prepare the skin dough. Or sometimes if I have some left over of fried vermicelli I previously made, I prefer use it for the filling.

So..are you interesting make one of Indonesian snack like this pastel bihun.... let's knead some dough now... 😊

Membuat tape ketan hitam / Fermented black glutinous rice (tapai)

For English please scroll down








Assalamu'alaikum... Merhaba dari Turkey

Kali ini saya akan bagikan cara membuat tape ketan hitam. Saya suka sekali tape ketan hitam ini ~ selain tape singkong tentunya. Tapi sayang sekali tidak ada singkong di Turki jadi gak bisa bikin tape singkong.

Saya selalu bikin tape ketan hitam ini tiap 6 bulan sekali pas mendekati musim panas, sebab suka banget dibikin es tape ketan a la es doger. Atau bikin pas bulan Ramadhan untuk saya bikin madumongso...tahu kan madumongso?? itu lho..semacam jenang yang dibungkus macam permen... jajanan jadul khas embah saya dulu. Insyaalloh bikin madumongso juga ntar saya posying juga.

Tapi hari ini saya postingkan cara membuat tape ketan hitam dulu ya. Bikinnya gampang kok, tidak serumit yang kita bayangkan.

Untuk membuat tape katan hitam ini, beras ketannya saya kukus saja, jadi tidak terlalu lembek. Tapi selama proses pengukusan sering-sering dipercik'i air secara merata dan kukus hingga beras ketan hitamnya mengembang hampir dua kali lipat dan lunak tapi tidak lembek.

Bubur Biji Salak Labu kuning / Indonesian pumpkin tapioca ball sweet porridge

Resep dalam bahasa Indonesia ada di bagian bawah






Selam everybody......Merhaba from Türkiye..

Bubur biji salak literally means snake fruit's stone/seed porridge. 
It's one of the traditional Indonesian food made of tapioca starch mix with ketela/ ubi jalar (same to sweet potatoes). The mixture dough is then shaped like "salak" fruit's stone (slightly oval shape) and cook into boiling water until floating. The balls then cook in thick palm/ coconut sugar sauce, thicken by adding some tapioca/ cornstarch. Served with a tasty slightly savory thick coconut milk. So this dish doesn't use any salak fruit at all in it.

It looks like Bubur candil indeed, but the difference is bubur candil is made of glutinous rice flour. Check this link for making bubur candil.

Although it tastes sweet, this porridge is not categorized as a dessert. I usually like to eat this sweet porridge in the morning for breakfast only as a substitute for rice.

Traditionally biji salak made of ubi jalar/ sweet potatoes puree, but people now days vary it with other tubers like potatoes or pumpkin. And today I am going to share my Biji salak made of pumpkin. I use homemade pumpkin puree, but you can use the canned one.
Before use your pumpkin puree make sure you reduce the water content by cook it first until you get thick consistency.
So let's jump to the recipe and get traditional Indonesian Biji salak on your family table.

Resep Bubur Candil / Indonesian glutinous balls sweet porridge

Please Scroll down for recipe in English 

Assalamu'alaikum semuanya...... Merhaba dari Turkey

Bubur candil adalah salah satu makanan tradisional Indonesia yang terbuat dari tepung ketan. Diolah secara sederhana dengan menambahkan air hangat lalu dibentuk bulat menyerupai kelereng dan dimasak dalam saus gula merah yang legit. Disajikan dengan santan kental yang gurih.

Walau rasanya manis dan legit, bubur candil ini tidak dikategorikan dessert atau pencuci mulut karena sifatnya yang mengenyangkan. Saya biasanya suka makan bubur ini di pagi hari sebagai sarapan ringan saja sebagai pengganti nasi. 


Di bulan puasa bubur candil (juga beberapa jenis bubur manis lainnya) sering dasajikan sebagai takjil* atau makanan pembuka di kala iftar/ buka puasa.

(*) Ta'jil berasal dari bahasa Arab yang bermakna menyegerakan berbuka (puasa), jadi tidak ada hubungannya dengan makanan. Tapi di Indonesia istilah ta'jil menjadi umum digunakan sebagai ungkapan makanan pembuka iftar/ buka puasa yang biasanya manis. Nabi Muhammad s.a.w telah memberi tauladan memakan buah kurma sebagai awal iftar.

Ramadhan tahun ini saya lagi pengen makan segala macem bubur manis khas Indonesia. Beberapa hari lalu saya bikin bubur ketan hitam yang sudah menjadi favorit mulai kecil, resepnya bisa dilihat di link ini.

Kali ini saya postingkan bubur candil yang penuh kenangan masa kecil juga. Biasanya saya beli bubur manis dan gurih dari penjual bubur khas Madura. Macem bubur Madura itu banyak banget, ada bubur sumsum, bubur ketan hitam, bubur srontol, mutiara dan bubur candil ini juga salah satunya.
Sukkaaa banget bubur candil ini karena rasanya legit dengan bola kenyal dari tepung ketan di dalamnya.

Bubur Ketam Hitam / Indonesian Black glutinous rice porridge in coconut sauce

Selam everybody .... Merhaba from Turkey ....

We are welcoming Ramadhan this early June. It is so much full of joy and blessing that we still can meet Ramadhan again this year, Alhamdulillah (^,^)

If you were living in Indonesia, you will feel how Ramadhan atmosphere affects in almost any routine activities. Usually students have shorter time at school. Some offices (not all though) also change their working hour earlier so they can finish their work earlier as well so they can have iftar with family at home.

When it comes to the fasting month of Ramadhan, most of Indonesians can get more excited, I am talking about their appetite of food. The Moms at home prepare many meals more than they usually serve daily. We try to complete our iftar table start from ta'jil*, entree until dessert and even snacks. Things that we hardly ever do daily. (^,^)

*Ta'jil (read; taqjeel) is from Arabic language means to hasten the fast break. But lately now days often defined as food for breaking the fast. In Islam it is recommended before having meal to eat snack first, preferably something sweet like dates as exemplified by the prophet Muhammad SAW

When we are talking about ta'jil, today I am going to share "bubur ketan hitam" literally mean black glutinous porridge. In Indonesia, especially in Java island it’s known as Bubur Ketan Hitam. In places with thick Malay influences (such as Sumatra and small islands around it) this is called Bubur Pulut Hitam. Meanwhile in Bali island people calls it Bubur Injin. 

Just like making other porridge, black glutinous rice cooked in a lot of water (some people cook in thin coconut milk) until it tender and gets porridge consistency. Adding gula jawa / coconut palm sugar as sweetened  then serve with thick light savory coconut milk.

Wedang Ronde (Indonesian Glutinous balls in ginger syrup)

Selam everybody..... Mehaba from Turkey....

My today post is Indonesian glutinous dumpling balls in ginger sugar syrup or Wedang Ronde. Wedang means hot drink in Indonesian language.
I don't know if I should call this "drink" because there are glutinous dumpling in it, either I can't call this dessert because mostly we didn't eat/ drink this after meal.
Just we are usually consume this herb dish to warm up our body during cool days like in rainy season.

And here in Turkey still, uncertain weather, frosty windy...that's why I am thinking to make something that could warmth us a bit. Beside that this dish is very good to fighting cold cause made from ginger and lemongrass herb. 

Generally we didn't make this at home. There are plenty street stalls selling it during rainy season. Well...they sell a long all season actually, but mostly increase during cool days or rainy season.
Generally they open their stalls only at night or start afternoon.

Resep Grontol Jagung (boiled corn with savory coconut)

Resep dalam bhs Indonesia ada dibagian bawah

Talking about traditional snack (Jajan pasar=Indonesian) is like open my childhood memory. I grew up with these foods like many other people in my age - maybe older. I don't know about kids in Indonesia now..are they still eating this "grontol jagung" or not since as far as I know (when I was in holiday to my homeland recently), very rare this food seller on street/ alleys. And parents.. maybe too busy to make this at home.

I remember there was one "grontol jagung" seller in front of my (elementary) school around year 198something. And I always bought at the morning before I entered my school yard to buy this for my breakfast cause I hardly ever got one in my house-sadly to say :(  
Yes this meal is really can make you full! so it's also something more for breakfast than a snack.

It is really easy but need patience to make it. For you Indonesian fellow (who born at 197something or older) who miss this food and want to make it at home..here my late grandma used to make long time ago as I remember...

#jajanpasar Gemblong ( Indonesian Glutinous rice cake coated with palm sugar)

Gemblong.. sound funny in your ear right? (^,^). It's one of the traditional Indonesian snacks (Jajan Pasar). You can get it at a traditional market or peddler in each alley in Indonesia, particularly in Java. This snack is made from glutinous rice flour mixed with fresh grated coconut and coconut milk, then fried and coated with palm sugar.

I remember this snack (jajan pasar) is one of regular one among many other traditional snack I had every morning accompanied my morning tea for breakfast. Yes.. some people eat nasi goreng or nasi uduk for breakfast sometimes, but I need something lighter than rice for my breakfast, so sometimes I just have some various jajan pasar.

Bolu Kukus Mekar jeruk sunkist (Indonesian Orange steamed cupcake)

Resep dalam bahasa Indonesia ada dibagian bawah








Selam everybody.... Merhaba from Turkey.

We call it "Bolu Kukus Mekar" in Indonesian language. Bolu means cake, Kukus= Steamed, and Mekar is blooming (like a flower). This is also one of the Indonesian traditional snacks that exists for a long time ago.

I remember my late grandmother made this so often for us, me and my siblings and aunties (we lived together at same house at that time). We love bolu kukus so much.
Then after my grandmother past away, my aunties usually made it for special occasion or just for tea time.

Old recipes mostly required local (Indonesian) soda drinks in the ingredients. But when I tried to make it here with local soda water/ drink, I never make it correctly. The "blooming" couldn't appear nicely like my grandmother/ aunties made. So I start to find a way how to make that "blooming" effect appear. One time I browsed the internet and find another Asian dessert similar with this cake called "huat kuih". That cake has a blooming appearance like our bolu, steamed also, but a totally different recipe, no emulsifier require. So I made that Huat kuih once ( I will post them later).. the texture and taste are different from our bolu kukus mekar which I'm  looking for. But I wonder how that Huat Kuih can have a "blooming effect".. Maybe it uses self-raising flour plus baking powder in it. 

So I dare my self to make this Bolu Kukus Mekar without soda water/drink. And since I have still some Oranges I want to make new variant also for this Bolu Kukus Mekar. This bolu taste is very nice, light and fluffy with strong orange and taste and flavor, so it's not just having orange color in it. And with chocolate strip adding more delish twist for this beautiful snack/ dessert. Try it..and tell me what you think.

Wingko Babat recipe / Indonesian Coconut base small pancake

Resep dalam bhs Indonesia ada dibagian bawah






This snack reminds me back at once upon a time in Jawa Island... a long time ago... Ooohh..where should I start... I have many memories blues my mind with this snack... Really... even when I start writing this post, my eyes already tears...I don't exaggerate it...maybe I just miss my homeland and my late father.

Back loongg time ago when I was a kid, my late father brought me,my smaller sister and big brother to his homeland, Tuban town. It's a small town in border of East Java and middle Java. 
A small town with very big fishes from the sea--at least that was on my mind when I was a kid. 
Because once my father took me to town's harbor to saw some fisherman with their bamboo fishing rod. They pulled one giant fish--bigger than me at that time from the sea! and I was so scary that time.

Then my father took me home again and bought me Wingko Babat from wingko seller at province's roadside, that seller was a boy, older than me I thought. 
Can you believe how strong our childhood memory is? Even I remember every detail that time. Since that bite, I was instantly love that snack.

And when I was living in Jakarta, far away from my family in Surabaya and anytime I miss my mom and families I should take 12 to 15 hours train from Jakarta to Surabaya. And every time the train stopped at each town's station, there were always many Wingko Babat seller came into our train wagon together with many other sellers offered what they sold. 
And usually, I bought Wingko Babat for my family at home. This "ritual" unexpectedly now became a valuable thing to remember. 

One time I really want to take my husband and kid to travel by train as I did a long time ago before I marry him, and feel what I lived before.

Wingko Babat is one of Indonesian old traditional snack (jajan Pasar) which may already exist decades ago together with other some traditional snacks/ food. Made from grated coconut and glutinous rice flour as main ingredient. Wingko is very famous on the northern coast of the island of Java. This cake is often sold at train stations, bus stations or also in pastry/ snack shops. In Java, Wingko also often become "snack souvenirs" for the family, which makes this snack famous for a nostalgic snack.
