Don’t think there has been a thread on this that I can see, so I’ll start the ball rolling with a beauty that I discovered this week on the island of Gili Trawangan off the coast of Lombok in Indonesia.
It’s called Rempeyek, I think basically a deep fried batter with the addition of tasty bits and pieces. This one was peanut and lemon leaf, the waiter said there is one with anchovies in too which I am now desperate to try. This wasn’t on the menu but offered as a pre-lunch snack with our bintang. I asked for more at dinner but it was finished so I think I’ve probably had my lot.
The great thing is the un-uniform thickness that gives you both crispy and chewy bits, a bit like a cookie.
