KUE DADAR GULUNG (ROLL CREPES WITH PALM SUGAR & GRATED COCONUT FILLING)

It's been a long time I have no company in the kitchen.

Last week, one of my friend asked me to cook one of 'kue jajan pasar' (traditional market dessert).

This dessert is really similar to the crepes. The batter is green because we added pandan extract and suji leaves extract into it. Since it's not easy to find the fresh ingredients, so we use a shortcut using only pandan paste for giving color and aroma.

The filling is grated coconut that we cook with melted palm sugar until it is saturated.

Last touch is we fill the crepes with the filling and roll it.

For the first 2-3 crepes we were still figuring out the thickness of our batter, until finally we came up with the right texture.

Ingredients :

Crepes :

250 grams flour

3 eggs

500-525 mL ( coconut milk : we mix about 200 mL thick coconut with water)

Pandan Paste

Salt 1/2 tsp

Filling :

1 pound of frozen grated coconut (thawed before using it)

250 grams palm sugar

125 mL water

Salt 1/2 tsp

Cinnamon powder 1/4 sdt

Method:

Filling : Melt the palm sugar with the water, salt. Add grated coconut into boiling sugar mixture, mix and stir until it mix well. Cook until all the sugar mixture is absorbed. Season with cinnamon powder.

Crepes : Beat the eggs with whisker, add the coconut milk. Pour out this wet ingredient into the dry ingredient, mix until well blended.

Heat the crepes pan or non stick pan about 15cm (diameter). Put little amount of margarine, pour out 1/4 cup of the batter, spread it evenly to all the pan surface. Wait until it is done.

Fill the crepes with the filling and roll it.
