Kue ape

(Serabi Jakarta)

Kue ape, also known as serabi Jakarta, is regarded as an Indonesian take on Indian pancakes known as appam. Indonesian version, which is usually associated with Jakarta, is prepared with a batter consisting of wheat flour, palm sugar, coconut milk, and yeast.


The pancake is typically crispy on the edges, while the center remains soft. It is often flavored with pandan, which gives these pancakes a distinctive green color. The dish is usually prepared and sold by street vendors that are located at hawker centers and street markets.
