El Fogón de Frakie

Often called Terang Bulan or Indonesian Sweet Pancake, this thick, buttery, and «holey» pancake is a legendary Indonesian street food. It is traditionally folded over a decadent filling of chocolate, cheese, peanuts, and condensed milk.   Ingredients:   Batter:

• 250g All-purpose flour
• 350ml Milk (or water)
• 1 Egg
• 50g Sugar
• ½ tsp Baking soda
• ½ tsp Yeast
• Pinch of salt.

Filling:

• Salted butter
• Condensed milk
• Chocolate sprinkles (Meisjes)
• Crushed peanuts
• Grated cheddar cheese.

  Methods:  

• Rest Batter: Whisk flour, sugar, salt, yeast, egg, and milk until smooth. Let the batter rest for at least 1 hour.
• Activate: Just before cooking, stir in the baking soda dissolved in a teaspoon of water.
• Cook: Pour the batter into a preheated, greased heavy-bottomed pan. Swirl to create a crispy rim.
• Bubbles: Once bubbles form on the surface, sprinkle with sugar and cover until the top is set.
• Assemble: Remove from the pan, slather generously with butter, add your choice of toppings, and condensed milk. Fold in half and slice.
