Pempek Fish Cakes

Pempek is a famous Indonesian fish cake dish originating from Palembang, made with ground fish and tapioca flour. These chewy and flavorful fish cakes are typically deep-fried and served with a unique sweet, sour, and spicy vinegar sauce known as cuko. Pempek is often accompanied by sliced cucumber and noodles, making it a delicious snack or light meal. Its rich seafood taste and tangy sauce make Pempek one of Indonesia’s most beloved traditional street foods. 

Cooking Method

 

In a mixing bowl, combine ground fish, egg, minced garlic, and salt. Mix well.

Gradually add tapioca flour and knead until a soft dough forms.

Shape the dough into small oval or round fish cakes.

Boil water in a pot and cook the shaped fish cakes until they float to the surface.

Remove and drain them, then let them cool slightly.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the fish cakes until golden brown and crispy.

Serve hot with sweet and sour vinegar sauce and fresh cucumber slices.
