Martabak manis (sweet stuffed pancake)

Preparation

1. 1

   In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar and baking powder, then whisk in the egg and milk gradually, until you get a smooth batter with no lumps.

2. 2

   Let the batter rest for 20 minutes at room temperature: it will puff up slightly and become airy.

3. 3

   Heat a thick pan (ideally cast iron) over medium heat, butter lightly, then pour in all the batter at once to form a thick layer.

4. 4

   Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes over low heat, until bubbles form all over the surface and the underside is golden: don't flip the batter, it only cooks from the base and the steam.

5. 5

   As soon as the centre is no longer liquid, generously sprinkle sugar, chocolate pieces and crushed peanuts all over the surface.

6. 6

   Fold the martabak in half using a spatula, then cut it into portions.

7. 7

   Spread butter on each outer face and serve warm, cut into slices.
