🥞 Martabak manis (thick Indonesian pancake)
Ingredients
- 250 g flour
- 400 ml warm milk
- 2 eggs, 60 g sugar
- 7 g dry yeast, 1 tsp baking soda
- A pinch of salt
- To fill: butter, sugar, condensed milk, crushed peanuts, grated chocolate
Method
- Mix the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, eggs and warm milk into a smooth, pourable batter.
- Let it rise 1 h covered: it should be covered in bubbles.
- Add the baking soda just before cooking — that is what opens the trademark honeycomb.
- Pour into a hot heavy pan and cook over medium heat uncovered for 5 min: holes appear and rise.
- Sprinkle with sugar, cover and continue 8 min, until the top is dry.
- Butter generously, fill with peanuts, chocolate and condensed milk, fold in half and cut into pieces.
