Bapel ( Indonesian Style Waffle )

During my visit to Aceh, I have the opportunity to learn and see how to make this Indonesian waffle. Ibu Erna and the ladies kindly demonstrated how to make it. This recipe is very special, taste much better than the one I used to buy from the market when I was a child in East Java.

The step by step photograph will help to follow the recipe.

Resep ibu Erna ini sangat enak, bapelnya gurih dan lembut. Petunjuk step by step dapat diikuti dengan mudah dengan adanya foto disamping cara pembuatan. Silahkan mencoba.
