Serabi

(Surabi, Srabi, Serabi kuah)

These traditional, small-sized Indonesian pancakes are usually prepared with rice flour and coconut milk. The pancakes are incredibly versatile, they come in sweet and savory versions, and can be adapted with wheat flour and various toppings such as sugar, bananas, crushed peanuts, jackfruit, chocolate sprinkles, or fermented oncom, while modern-day additions also include meat, sausages, or ice cream.


Serabi pancakes are found throughout Java, but they are usually associated with the cities of Bandung and Solo. They are typically accompanied by strawberry, durian, or coconut-based kinca syrup, and are mainly sold as a quick and convenient street food.


A similar dish can be found in Thailand, where it goes under the name khanom khrok.
