Food Diary #068 | Botok

in hive-109690 •  5 hours ago 

Let's start today with something uncommon. This is botok, not botox which is a cosmetic operation there. Botok is a traditional food originated from Java Island, but it's not clear which part of Java started it first, the central one or the eastern one.

Botok consists of grated coconut meat which has low content of coconut milk. so those coconut meat has to be squeezed first to remove their milk then it is cooked together with other ingredients from vegetables to fishes. These botoks are cooked in banana leaves, and they are served together with those leaves.

Botok is consumed together with a warm white rice, but it won't be a rice with botok only. We can have many other dishes or side dishes there, with some vegetables and crisp. I have my botok here with a fried chicken and some stir-fried tempeh in soy sauce.

Ok that's all for my Food Diary today. I hope you like it and please feel free to leave any comments below. Thank you for visiting my post and special thanks to theentertainer and visionaer3003 who have been managing our community very well, The Camping Club Steemit CCS.
