Filling leisurely while enjoying an afternoon snack with a cup of hot tea and coffee is a simple activity that is very enjoyable. Snacks that don't need to be expensive and fancy. No need to buy, take advantage of existing ingredients to make simple snacks to increase intimacy with family or friends.
Homemade snacks made from simple ingredients are a great choice to fill a relaxing time after a tiring activity. Homemade snacks usually use natural ingredients from crops such as corn, breadfruit, cassava, potatoes, bananas, etc. Compared to modern snacks that contain lots of preservatives and that's all that many are looking for today and maybe the current generation doesn't know these home-made snacks. Because now many are selling fast food to lazy to make their own food. Nothing wrong right? if we make our own snacks that are natural and guaranteed.
In this article, I want to introduce to all my readcash friends about my childhood snacks that I always miss. This snack was often made by my late mother. When I was tired of playing or just got home from school, my late mother was very diligent in making snacks.
This afternoon I went to my sister-in-law's house. There was a celebration at her house. I saw a lot of bananas and other ingredients that are suitable for making snacks. Finally, I decided to make a banana Cekodok snack.
Cekodok is a fried snack made from bananas mixed with other ingredients. And my families who was busy helping the event was very enthusiastic about this snack. With a cup of tea and coffee. This snack doesn't have to take long to finish. Since I don't like coffee I eat it with a cup of hot tea.
So, the ingredients for making Cekodok include :
Bananas (preferably a ripe banana that is slightly mushy)
Rice flour
Grated coconut
Salt
Sugar
How to make it
First, mash the bananas first (use a masher or squeeze by hand)
When the taste is slightly smooth, add the grated coconut.
Stir until all the bananas and grated coconut are combined.
Then, add the rice flour, salt and sugar.
Stir again until the mixture is all mixed.
The last step, take one tablespoon of the cekodok dough and fry it until it turns brown
If the dough is too soft, add more flour so that it doesn't stick when frying. Hot banana Cekodok home snack is ready to be served.
Even natural snacks , no need to cook just fruits, I was fond to roam around the bushes and find trees that bare fruit and climb my way up to get one haha my childhood snacks
