Ketoprak..Fun Eating experience : day and night..

Dear Fun Eating Lovers:
It always become my favourite food since I was a little girl..Fortunately, the ketoprak seller was selling the ketoprak next to my door. As the result, every 1-2 days, I whined to my Mom to buy it for me ^_^.
Do you know what? The Ketoprak seller is very handsome. He look like the popular singer at that time, Mr R**** H******. wondering why he didn't get famous also, huh? I also keep it in mind too..

In short, I always have my ketoprak wishes to Mr. "R"(that's how I called him). then I will bring the biggest plate I can found in my kitchen. It was fun to think the bigger plate, the bigger portion I will get ^_^ . I ran next door then starting commanding my wishes to Mr. "R"

1. No Ketupat (Rice steamed, wrapped by coconut leaves)
2. More Rice Noodles
3. More Tofu and must be half-fried
4. More Peanut Sauce
5. More chili
6. No mistake in interpreting my request ^_^
In fact, he just listened carefully (and quietly also), and 10 minutes after that, a plate of ketoprak was ready to be eaten! Here is my lunch time!

So, what is ketoprak ? Ketoprak is familiar to be found on Jakarta's street. The seller is bringing a big cart, usually in red color. they hit the plates to inform their coming. "Ting..Ting..Ting.." Fun noise at the midday for me..
The sound will certainly change into "dug..dug..dug" when the seller is busy in pestling the peanut sauce..

You can find eating ketoprak to become very fun and unique, as it consists rice noodles, tofu, chili, and ketupat and be poured with tasty peanut sauce..
First, the seller will put the chili (customized whether you want it hot or not) + garlic + peanut grill + brown sugar, mixed it with citrus water together, pestle them together.
after that, he will put sliced ketupat, take hot tofu and slice it into pieces, take an amount of rice noodles into the peanut sauce. sluurp! Add the Soy Sauce as the topping. last step, pour smashed red chips. Perfect! Now it is Fun eating time..

Usually, the ketoprak seller will be easily to be found at day time. but in the certain areas in Jakarta, you can also find it at night time. I dont know why, but the night one taste better for me. the night time ketoprak is always full of customers. they usually bring kerosene lamp and stay in one place. it is different from day time, the seller is towarding his cart from street to street..

No matter in day time or night time, Eating ketoprak is always delicious for all times!
