Egg Crust Food (Kerak Telor)

Egg crust(Kerak Telor) is an authentic food from Betawi, Jakarta. I choose this food because I am authentic betawi. I like this food, because there is a lot of mixture of ingredients in the making, namely, white sticky rice, chicken eggs, ebi (dried marinated shrimp) which is dried roasted plus fried shallots, then given mashed spices in the form of roasted coconut, red chili, kencur, ginger, pepper granules, salt and sugar.

This egg crust has a savory and legit taste. This food has long been one of the mainstay foods of the city of Jakarta, especially the Betawi people. not only sold in roadside stalls, traditional snacks are often sold during major Jakarta events such as the "Jakarta Fair". Although a lot of various foods are served there, the egg crust remains one of the most sought after foods by residents of Jakarta.

Cooked crust egg using a skillet. When the crust of the egg is half done, the egg crust is turned over and left exposed to the coals while being fanned. When it is rather dry and cooked, then the egg crust is served with serundeng which comes from grated coconut, also fried onions.

maybe that's all I can say about this explanation of Betawi traditional food,
Thank you.
