CRISPY SEMPRONG ORIGINAL (INDONESIAN EGGROLL)

Semprong is a crunchy snack that always tempting my tongue to enjoy them. I like it since I was a kid until now. When I got to enjoy the snack with my kids, I still feel like enjoying semprong with my friends and my brothers in my hometown.

In childhood, I only know how to enjoy and spend a can of Semprong in front of me. Now, when I started to teach my children about how to live a life that filled with colorful favor from Allah SWT and how to grateful. Sometimes I and My wife interested in making Semprong cakes and also enjoying together with my daughters.

Semprong cake making is actually quite easy and simple, but if we are less experienced, it will be very difficult. Sometimes burnt, sometimes soft when it should be crisp. From the recipe books we've read, here's a recipe that I can share.



Ingredients:

3 eggs
150 grams of sugar flour
225 grams of rice flour, sifted
4 tablespoons of sago flour, sifted
175 ml coconut milk from half coconut
4 teaspoons margarine, melted
40 grams of sesame
1/4 teaspoon salt

How to Make:

1. Beat eggs and sugar until thick flour. Add rice flour and sago flour that has been sifted, then stir well.
2. Enter the coconut milk and melted margarine. Stir well. Add sesame seeds and salt. Stir well.
3. Heat Semprong cookie mold. Pour 1 tablespoon of dough into the mold. Cover it with other side of mold. Heat over low heat while inverted until the cake is almost dry.
4. Open mold, then immediately roll with chopsticks or can be set up according to your taste. Let stand until cool and crisp.



Tips:

1. If cooking with fire, more easily if using ember, not flame.
2. There are also molds that use power with better results, because the heat is evenly and scalable.
