Although I know I won’t fast fully for 29-30 days, I will still post 30 recipes of Indonesian traditional sweets, desserts, and/or snack, that we call as jajan pasar, as part of my #promo-indonesia and the holy fasting month of Ramadhan.
This evening though (for Day 14), I am thinking to just have a glass of cold caramel syrup (sugar free!), that I grabbeb from Wholesale Canada yesterday, but of course that isn’t Indonesian 😅😏😅🤔
Ah well, I still have hours to figure what I would like to prepare for this evening. For now I have Bubur Candil, glutinous balls in sweet sauce, served with salted coconut milk. Soooooo good.
My childhood fave.
I think this is from Java, however, the Balinese and Lomboknese have almost similar dessert, called Jaja Batu Bedil, while in Borneo they have Hintalu Karuang.
My Mama used to make this when I was little, and she called it as Biji Salak.
Various names from island to island (Indonesia has thousands of islands btw), but they are all almost similar one to another, gooey, glutinous ball, with brown sugar and coconut milk (or grated coconut for Bali style).
In short, a bowl of YUMMINESS 😋😋😋😋
