Pempek Kulit Tenggiri and Pempek Kapal Selam

Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Tenggiri fish fillet 300 grams (skin sliced thinly)
Garlic 10 cloves
Chicken eggs 2 (1 for dough, 1 for kapal selam)
Tapioca flour 300 grams
All-purpose flour 200 grams (I used Segitiga Biru)
Ice water 150 cc
Green onions To taste
Fine salt 3 teaspoons
Ground pepper ½ teaspoon
Cooking oil 3 tablespoons (for boiling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fish: Scrape the flesh from the tenggiri fillet and place it in a mixing bowl.
  2. Flavor the Mixture: Blend the garlic with salt and add it to the scraped fish.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add 1 egg, ground pepper, and chopped green onions to the fish mixture.
  4. Mix the Flours: Gradually incorporate the all-purpose flour and tapioca flour, then knead until well combined. Add ice water slowly and continue kneading until the dough is smooth and no longer sticky.
  5. Shape the Pempek: For pempek kulit, form the dough into flat shapes. For pempek kapal selam, encase a whole egg in the dough (use tapioca flour on your hands to prevent sticking).
  6. Cook the Pempek: In a pot, bring water and cooking oil to a boil. Boil the pempek until they float to the surface, then remove and drain.
  7. Serve: Don’t forget the cuko sauce to accompany your pempek! Stay tuned for the recipe in a future post. Enjoy!
