Martabak Manis


Martabak manis is a popular snack in Indonesia. In Jakarta and West Java, Indonesia, these sweet, thick pancakes are known as "martabak manis" ("sweet martabak"). Other Indonesians call the pancakes as "terang bulan" or "kue pinang bangka". These pancakes are also known as "apam balik" in Malaysia.
Usually made by street vendors in the evening, martabak manis are pan-cooked in a very large amount of shortening. A thin batter is poured into a specially shaped pan. After cooking, the pancake is ready to be topped: often with cheese, and/or shortening, and/or chocolate, and/or peanuts.

Beat the eggs in a bowl until foamy. Add a little salt according to taste. Using a wok or frying pan, heat it up and coat it with a little cooking oil to avoid the food from sticking while cooking.

Then cut the cooked eggs into strips for placing at the top of the nasi goreng later.

Use a food processor to process the onion, chili, garlic, sugar and coriander until it became a thick paste.

Heat up a wok or frying pan and add in 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Then saute the processed paste and cooked until it is fragrant. Add the meat and raw shrimps. Cook for another few minutes until the color changes. Finally add in the cooked rice and add more cooking oil if necessary. Add all the sauces, scallions and continue frying for another 30~60 seconds, until it is fragrant.

Scope from the work into a plate and add the strips of omelet at the top to garnish. Serve while hot.
