Martabak is a stuffed pancake or pan-fried bread commonly found in the Arabian Peninsula and Southeast Asia, notably in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Yemen, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, and Thailand. Depending on the location, the name and ingredients can significantly vary. In my hometown Semarang, Martabak Telor is a street food snack to accompany tea or coffee in the morning or evening.
I am a little bit "cheating" and replacing it with the ready spring roll pastry for the stretchy dough for the recipe today, as it is not easy for me to prepare the pliable dough with my working time. When talking about recipes, it is not about "cheating" the original recipes, but how we make it various and apply it with the limited materials. Expand the creativity to solve the tummy problem and satisfying the feeling of craving with limited materials.
Like the proverb says, "When there is no rattan's, then use the roots!"

When I am missing my hometown, the idea always pops up to create my authentic hometown savor 😅.
