Sunflower Soup (Sup Bunga Matahari)

This dish originally comes from Solo, a big town in Central Java, Indonesia. We call it Sunflower soup because its shape is similar as sunflower. The unique thing about this dish is only available/served in some wedding parties in Solo. So far I have never found any restaurants in Indonesia that have this dish on their menu. This is my first attempt to make it and it is very technical, but to see how the way it turns out and how delicious and fresh the taste is (my family loves it), I am sure I will cook this again in the future.
