How could you possibly refuse a special snack from a particular region if it is prepared in a unique way with a super delicious taste.



This time, I will show you how to make a popular snack recipe. Known as olos, it looks similar to fried balls, like regular fried snacks. However, this snack has a different taste and is super easy to make.




What is Olos?

Olos is a traditional snack dish that originated in a region of Indonesia known as Tegal. This dish has a chewy texture and a round shape made from flour, which is then fried with a spicy stir-fried cabbage filling and seasoning. Its unique and delicious taste is savory and perfect as a snack to enjoy while relaxing.

The preparation process is very easy, but you should know that olos also has many different fillings. However, the one I made has a vegan filling of cabbage. Its savory and spicy taste makes it even more unique.

Once the dough has formed, add the tapioca flour and stir until the dough is no longer sticky.

Add a little cooking oil to a pan, then sauté the blended spices until the water evaporates and the chili smell disappears.

Serve the olos while hot, ready to fry, to enjoy the delicious taste that will tantalize your taste buds. The special flavor is savory and sweet with a chewy texture. I really like the combination of spicy filling with just the right amount of spiciness, plus the savory cabbage that makes this snack so delicious.

I dip it again in my favorite sambal sauce, making it even more delicious, especially on a cold day when enjoying warm fried snacks is truly unbeatable. For those of you who want to try olos, a traditional snack there, I’m sure you’ll love it.
