"Babat" Noodle (Bilingual-Eng-Indo)

 

Here is my own way to make one of my husband’s fave dish ever, “Mie Babat”. Common egg noodles served with cow’s internal tummy part (we call this “Babat” in Indonesia). It seems weird but it is so yummy and they produce special unique scent and flavor in the soup. Let’s see and try it yourself!

 

(Teman-teman ini aku share resep Mie Babat kesayangan suami, kebetulan dia doyan banget makan Mie Babat, berhubung nggak di Indo jadinya belajar masak sendiri, dan hasilnya memuaskan, meski warna Babat nggak bisa se-merah Babat untuk Mie Babat di Indonesia. Well, ini dia resepnya!)

3. After they are soft and tender, take the babat out of the water and throw the water away.

(Setelah babat empuk, keluarkan dari dalam air, dan buang airnya.)

 

4. Boil another 3 liters of water in a pot. After it’s boiled, put in the BABAT.

9. Move the seasone noodles into new clean bowl and put in some of the BABAT, some leek, and some fried onions. In another bowl, pour in the BABAT soup. Serve hot!
