Still in Ramazan spirit, wish you my Muslim friends Ramadan Mubarek 🙏
During Ramadan, Muslim households will fast till dusk falls and break the fast with an iftar meal.
In Indonesia mostly we make or buy snack to enjoy during iftar, we call it Ta'jil (read; taqjeel). Ta'jil itself comes from Arabic language means to fast-breaking, so it has nothing to do with the food. But in Indonesia, the term ta'jil is becoming commonly used as an expression of usually sweet iftar appetizers. Prophet Muhammad s.a.w gave the example of eating dates as the beginning of iftar.

For Indonesian sweet appetizer ideas, you can check my  Indonesian glutinous balls sweet porridge. Indonesian cold beverage "es doger" / Es Doger Tape ketan hitam, Indonesian Black glutinous rice porridge in coconut sauce, and more. Just check Indonesian Food category and Indonesian Snack (Kue). 

And today I will share another Indonesian traditional kue ( snack ) call "pukis".  
Kue is an Indonesian bite-sized snack or dessert food. Kue is a fairly broad term in Indonesian to describe a wide variety of snacks; cakes, cookies, fritters, pies, scones, and patisserie. Kue is made from a variety of ingredients in various forms, some are steamed, fried, or baked. Kue are popular snacks in Indonesia, which has the largest variety of kue.

Pukis is made from yeast mixture, egg, sugar, flour, and coconut milk. The mixture then poured into a half-moon mold and baked over a fire stove (not an oven). The traditional way, it's cooked over charcoal.

Indonesia has many....probably hundreds of variants of snacks. Start from traditional snacks e.g many kind of kueh basah (literally means wet/moist snacks), fried snacks (in Indonesian 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 usually has a sweet taste, but some are also savory. But not all of them use steamed method, named kue basah mostly because they are moist. 

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

Just like what İ want to share today. İt's including in kue basah- calls Serabi Kinca. İt's a pancake-like, served with sweet coconut milk sauce. Traditionally the pancake is cooked on a clay concave wok and heat over a traditional clay stove with charcoal called an anglo stove.

Unfortunately, mine was broken during my flight from İndonesia to Turkey few years ago. So İ made this favorite kue basah using small teflon pan diameter ±13cm. İf you have iron cast pan it will work as well.

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.

PANDAN CHIFFON CAKE/ KEK CHIFFON PANDAN

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

Yep... It's chiffon cake again. Do you know why? because this cake such and delicious, soft, and light cake to eat. Not easily make you full on stomach..so guess next...everybody wouldn't take only 1 slice! So chiffon cake in my house never survive more than 2 days.

And I love to bake it, especially my today's chiffon cake..it's pandan flavor! My fave! Same as I bake matcha/ green tea, the pandan aroma gives such a wonderful scent in my house. Love it! it just remind me of my homeland.... ^,^

I love pandan since in Indonesia we have many traditional meals using this aromatic leaf...
Even my mom plants two kind of pandan (aromatic pandan and pandan suji) in our small yard. Aromatic pandan (we call it pandan wangi) mostly has larger leaf than pandan suji and give wonderful aroma in your meal/ dessert. Pandan suji has smaller leaf, it gives strong and nice green color in your meal/dessert, the aroma not really fragrant as aromatic pandan.

And for today's pandan chiffon cake I took recipe from Sajian sedap, one of the biggest cooking magazines in Indonesia. 

And here I re-write the recipe.

"Children need our presence more than our presents"

Selam everybody .... Merhaba from Turkey..

My today's post is steamed cake from egg white again. If you are my  regular blog's reader you probably notice that I posted many steamed cake in this humble page, and some of them used egg white-mostly left over egg white.. 

Yes I do like steamed cake. Cake with steamed process I think it's more moist than bake one. And for me any recipe I use with steamed process it become fail proof recipe (^,^) ... trust me. I tried many time, with same recipe, when I steamed it, it always came out fluffy and moist cake, while - some time I got 'broken heart' cake out from my oven... in fact that recipe with oven bake method... I have no idea why.. 

Please do check other steamed cake post on "steamed" over cooking method section.
You can also check specific steamed cake from egg white like Spiced steamed cake here, Chocolate steamed cake from egg white, Steamed zebra cake here.

And today I just steamed another cake from left over egg white and this time I twist chocolate flavor with my favorite Pandan flavor on marble cake.
Steamed process took about 45 minutes, also you must check by inserted skewer in the middle, continue steam if your skewer comes out still wet (it should comes out really clean).

Onde-Onde Isi Kacang hijau / Indonesian style glutinous dumpling balls

Onde Onde is one of Indonesian traditional snack or Jajan pasar (kue). Jajan Pasar (kue) is Indonesian bite-sized snack or dessert food. Kue is a fairly broad term in Indonesian to describe a wide variety of snacks; cakes, cookies, fritters, pies, scones, and patisserie. Kue are popular snacks in Indonesia, which has the largest variety of kue.

Indonesian kue are usually categorized according to its moisture. Roughly divided under two groups, kue basah (lit: "wet kue") and kue kering (lit: "dry kue"). In fact, the word kue in Indonesian language is used to refer to not only these kinds of traditional snack, but also all types of cake and some types of pastries. Most kue kering are technically pastries and many Western cakes can be considered as kue basah.


This Onde onde is one of kue basah category in Jajan pasar's variety. Make from Glutinous rice flour (black or white) covered by sesame seed with (traditionally) filled with mung bean (kacang hijau). Some  modern onde onde already modified with various filling such as chocolate, cheese, red bean, etc.

And my today's post is traditional Onde onde with mung bean filling. I used mix sesame seed for a little variation. Here I write my recipe base on "tabloid Nova" ... Have a try..and taste the real Indonesian jajan pasar in your kitchen (^,^)

Make about 15 dumpling balls.

Marble Sponge Cake with Pandan swirl

Some my facebook friends posted their beautiful good looking and scrumptious spongecake with many variant in flavors, it makes me drool and finally I got that "spongecake virus" (^,^) in the result.

But beside that "virus" actually I crave about pandan cake lately.... I really really want to make something with pandan flavor. I love pandan since we have many meal using this aromatic leaf...even my mom plants two kind of pandan (aromatic pandan and pandan suji) in our small yard. Aromatic pandan (we call it pandan wangi) mostly has larger leaf than pandan suji and give wonderful aroma in your meal/ dessert. Pandan suji has smaller leaf, it gives strong and nice green color in your meal/dessert, the aroma not really fragrant as aromatic pandan.

And as a "spongecake virus" result, here I made my Pandan Sponge cake (^,^).... 

There was small "accident" during made this cake... I was planning to add few drop of green color to give more vivid green color, but when I tried to drop some color, the inner cap slipped off so almost quarter bottle of green color dropped into my batter..!!

My first plan to make swirl only..end up with slightly layer spongecake.... hhhhh

But it didn't affect taste of the cake thanks God only not as good looking as I wish...anyway.. I'll do better next time. 

This spongecake I copy from my friend's page here which is adapted from NCC page here. Those sources using Indonesian language, so I'll write for you if you want to try it also in your kitchen. I'm telling you this recipe really fail proof...many people use this recipe and end up with fluffy and scrumptious sponge cake.
