Different regions, different types of food are made. Ingredients produced by agriculture in each region. Also, related to culture that influences how food is served.
Especially in Indonesia. In my country, there are many tribes and cultures. That makes the food in my area very diverse! Especially traditional foods.
This afternoon I enjoyed a dish with a unique name. Here, we call food Submarine. Look at that! In my opinion, it does look like a submarine, although it is not very long anyway.
This food we called Pempek in my area and that is made from fish flour. There are many types of this unique menu. With various shapes, also fillings. One of the popular types of pempek is the type I ordered.
This type of submarine has an egg filling in it. Why is it called a submarine? Even though the shape is not very similar. Actually, I think there is a reasonable reason.
The cooking process of this food is what finally makes this food called a submarine. In making it, eggs are put into the dough as a filling. After being successfully formed, the dough containing the eggs is then cooked in boiling water.
At the beginning of the cooking process, the dough containing the eggs will sink in boiling water. Just like a submarine! Then, the dough containing the eggs is considered cooked and ready to be lifted when the dough has floated on the surface of the water. For me, this cooking process does look interesting. Just like the familiar cooking process that I use in my kitchen to make several traditional dishes.
Next, after being boiled, the dough containing the eggs will be fried to create a distinctive taste before being served with a distinctive sauce as well.
For the sauce here, they use a sauce that has a fresh sensation. I like this fresh taste. A combination of sour and fresh tamarind and sweet from brown sugar. Also given pieces of pickled cucumber to add to the fresh taste.
Anyway, I also enjoyed avocado juice at the same place. Don't be surprised. In Indonesia, we are used to enjoying avocados in a sweet way, juiced with the addition of sweetened condensed milk.
Maybe it's also because in our area it is influenced by the type of avocado itself. I have a hard time finding the type of avocado that is suitable for savory meals. So, most people in my area only consume avocados for juice.
Of course, in various countries each has its own characteristics adjusted to the abundance of ingredients. All complement each other, worth tasting.
How, do you want to try this submarine-like dish? The taste is very unique but suitable for those of you who like savory flavors.

Looks tempting.. infact every city has it own speciality in food...
That dish looks so yummy. I've never seen anything quite like that

Wow it looks yummy. Something in it looks like a boiled egg.
Ohh, that sounds good though, with how you describe it. I'm curious anout the taste especially when you already dip it in the sauce. 🤤
this is the most delicious food, I have ever eaten this, it tastes very delicious.
Looks so tasty! That flavor combo is a must-try! I wish I could teleport and have a great taste of the delicious delicacy.
Its mouth watering 🤤.I hope i can have a taste of it too.
Everything looks delicious. Enjoy your meal
Thank you. It was mouthwatering dish!
I'm curious to try avocado in a juice, I usually like it in salads and only with meats and vegetables. I guess the avocado in your country lends itself more to eating it sweet.
Anyway, I'm always open to try new flavors.
Your post looks very appetizing. Enjoy it! 👍
Yeah, avocado here for sweet
But I also like avocado for salad and sandwich for breakfast 😊
Thank you for enjoying my post
Have a great day!

Avocado here in Cuba is eaten in salads and always in savory dishes. I will try it as you present it.
Thank you for giving me the possibility of other options in the kitchen. Happy weekend. A hug friend.🤗🥰
I have never seen a dish anywhere like this. It does look interesting though.
I looks so yummy 😋.
It is very peculiar the way it is immersed. I found the title of the post intriguing, but more so is the way the egg is placed inside it. The way it is dipped in the sauce is incredible.
I am intrigued, every country has a unique gastronomy.
I always admire your delicacies it guves me some watery juicy yummy appitite 😋😋
One thing about food is that it differs among regions. This looks good. The fact that the food is named according to what it looks like is more like a submarine. I'm certain it tasted great.
I have had a taste of avocado juice before and I know how good it tastes.
@anggreklestari's enthusiastic description of the 'Submarine Dish' and the accompanying avocado juice makes me want to try it immediately!The personal touch,combined with the detailed explanation of the dish's preparation and unique taste,is very appealing.The post successfully conveys both the culinary experience and the cultural context.I'm intrigued by the unique cooking process and the fresh tamarind sauce.
