About this dish

The "dadar gulung" is a traditional Indonesian sweet treat, often described as a rolled green pancake. Its characteristic green color comes from pandan leaves, which also give it a unique aroma. The pancake is thin and light, made from a mixture of flour, sugar, salt, and coconut milk, flavored with pandan juice. Inside, there is a sweet, soft filling made of grated coconut and palm sugar or brown sugar, sometimes enhanced with pieces of jackfruit or other fruits. Once the filling is placed on the pancake, it is delicately rolled, creating a dessert that is both soft and aromatic. Dadar gulung is often enjoyed as a snack or during festivities. Its mix of textures and flavors makes it a favorite among food lovers and fans of Indonesian cuisine.
