Indonesian dessert

Hi everyone! On this post I will introduce you to some of traditional dessert from Indonesia. 

1. Sekoteng

Sekoteng is basically a ginger-based hot drink, it made with simple ginger syrup and condensed milk. It has diced bread, sagoo pearls, coconut, palm fruit, and peanuts as a topping. It is the best to have on winter time, since it is served hot. Even though the picture does not look interesting, but trust me it tastes really good. This has been my favorite lately.

2. Wedang ronde

It is almost the same as sekoteng, it uses ginger-syrup and condensed milk, but the thing that makes it different is the toppings. Wedang ronde uses "mochi" as their toppings. It has big mochi which is fills with mashed peanut and small mochi. They also make the mochi colorful. It's also served hot, just like sekoteng. 


 3. Es Nona

This ice drink is from Pontianak (Which is part of Indonesia). It contains papaya that has been soaked in lime water so that the texture is crunchy, cassava tapai, red beans, tapioca pearls, and sometimes added jackfruit and pieces of bread. After put all in, they add shaved ice syrup and sweetened condensed milk as a topping.

Three delights from the earth

Image
Hi again! It's Britney introducing you to NorthEastern Chinese cuisine. One of the most popular dishes from this cuisine is called di san xian (roughly translated to "three delights from the earth"). It may seem these translations sound too corny but it truly is that good!   This is comprised of three main ingredients: potatoes, eggplant and green capsicum. (what is there to not like about potatoes 😀) It's a golden stir-fry infused with flavours of garlic, vinegar and a sweet brown sauce.  This is a classic dish that is a must-try when you visit your next NorthEast restaurant.  As for a recommendation, I would still recommend eating at Hong Fu, they make the best representation of di san xian in my opinion!  Reference:  https://www.blog.thatsmandarin.com/5-top-dishes-to-order-at-dongbei-restaurants/ Image: https://thewoksoflife.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/di-san-xian-7.jpg

Candied Sweet Potato

Image
Candied sweet potato is a classic dessert in the NorthEast region of China. This dish is a Chinese delicacy that looks like cubes of sweet potato caramelised and stuck together like stick glue! To eat this, you have to pull it out and dip it in cold water to harden the sugar coating on the outside. The warm sugar hardens in the air like pieces of strings when you pull it out. Once you eat it, it is hard on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. Although this dish consists of a few ingredients, it requires a lot of skills to properly prepare. A quick tip: You must eat it quickly or else they will all stick together like hardened glue! This dish is especially tasty during winter and it is quite an adventure to eat. You should definitely check it out when eating at a NorthEastern Chinese restaurant!
