Dadar gulung is one of the popular snacks in Indonesia, especially in Java. In Indonesian, dadar literally means "omelette" or "pancake" while gulung means "to roll". Usually the pancake has green-coloured which acquired from daun suji or pandan leaves.[2] It is a green-colored folded omelette or pancake made of rice flour, filled with grated coconut and palm sugar. It is commonly found in Indonesia and Malaysia. The snack is commonly found in traditional marketplaces and warung in Indonesia, especially in Java, Bali and other regions. In Malaysia, it is known as kuih gulung, kuih ketayap and kuih lenggang.
Ingredients and cooking method
The batter is made from the mixture of flour, salt, eggs and coconut milk. Mix the batter with suji or daun pandan paste as green food coloring. To make the filling, combine the grated coconut flesh, palm sugar, salt, cinnamon and water in a pot on the stove. A tied pandan leave is usually added to the mixture for aroma. The green-colored batter is then cooked on flat frying pan with small amount of margarine, much in the same fashion as baking a thin pancake or omelette. Then the sweet coconut filling is placed upon the flat green pancake, and then folded on each sides just like tortilla, to create an elongated rectangular shape.[1]
