Klepon

I don’t know any Indonesian that said that klepon is their favorite snack …. But I don’t know any Indonesina that would stand to let any klepon left untouched …..

I would say that klepon is one of the “gone in no time” snacks …. You would not realize how much you eat it until you see that your plate is empty …..

The recipe is relatively easy but a bit tricky … the key is not to give to much filling …..




1/2 tea spoon of salt
1 tea spoon air kapur sirih
1 tea spoon pandan paste
175 cc warm water
250 gram glutinous rice flour
100 gram javanese palm sugar for filling
200 gram fresh grated coconut for coating
1,5 water to boil

Mix salt, air kapur sirih, pandan paste & warm water set aside. Pour the water mixture to rice flour knead until all well corporated. Make small ball, fill with a bit of javanese palm sugar, throw the dought to the boling water, boiled until klepon balls are floats to the surface. Roll the klepon balls on the fresh grated coconut.
