Sago Biscuit (Tebaloi)

(Sago Biscuit)

Tebaloi is a traditional snack originating from Sarawak. It's usually made with a combination of sago flour, eggs, desiccated coconut, turmeric, sugar, and various flavorings. The dough consists of sago flour, coconut, sugar, and eggs. It's flattened on a large banana leaf and placed over hot embers.


The dough is then removed, cut into squares, and placed back on the embers. A heavy block is placed on top of the crackers to flatten them even more. The smoke from the wood gives a unique aroma to these crackers. Over time, tebaloi has been enriched with different flavors such as pandan or chocolate.
