Cakue
Yeah! You know, when you're expecting a baby normally you have a constant craving for a particular food. Now my heavenly food was this cakue.
I can tell you that it was not easy to make. Especially to make the dough. It was painful to wait them rise.
But anyway. Here we go.
300 gr of wheat flour (use the medium-protein type, or the type that usually used for bread dough)
a spoonful of baking powder
a half spoonful of baking soda
a half spoonful of dry yeast
salt to taste
200 ml water
Cakue sauce:
2 spoonful of tomato sauce
1 spoonful of chili sauce
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 teaspoon of lemon juice
a little bit of water, maybe a spoonful
(it would be nice if you add slices of young mango or pineapple into it)
Make cakue dough by mixing all of the ingredients. Knead the dough until it's smooth and do not stick on your palm. Cover your bowl with plastic sheet and wait it to rise approximately for 6 hours. No i'm not kidding, it is 6 HOURS. That was why i called it painful to wait :)))
After six hours, beat the dough to push the air out, and make cakue shape out of it. I took a spoonful of dough then flat it down. Then I took another spoonful of it, flat it down, and stacked it on the previous flat dough. So a ready-to-fry cakue will have two flat dough stick to each other. Fry them in preheated oil. Make sure the oil is hot.
For cakue sauce:
Stir together all of your ingredients until it gets a nice consistency. I like thick sauce, so i just add a very little amount of water.
TIPS:
Before you put your cakue dough into oil, stretch it a little bit. It will give you softer and fluffier texture of cakue.
Smakelijk eten!
