Tempeh is fermented soybean patty and tauhu is a soybean cake.

Indonesian Pancakes:

There are many kinds of pancake in Indonesia.

My favorite is Serabi. This traditional pancake is made using 'clay pan' on a woodfire. It's main ingredient is Rice Flour and the water from a coconut fruit.

Traditionaly, this pancake is served with sweet sauce of Coconut Milk and Brown Sugar mixture. But in the late 1990s modified version of Serabi has emerged.

This 'modern day' Serabi has a 'topping' of ingredients such as sausage, chocolate, pineapple jam or even Oncom (fermentead soy bean curds, leftover from soy sauce production).

Another kind of Indonesian pancake is 'Kue Ape'. Roughly translated as 'The What Cake' or simply 'Cake?'.

I believe the original name for Kue Ape is something rather vulgar. When first introduced, people very quickly shouted 'What!?' at the cook. Hence the name.

There's also several other pancake-like food in Indonesia. Namely 'Kue Cucur' and 'Kamir'.
