Coconut Rice
6:13:00 AM
This is a traditional Betawinese ( the original inhabitants of Jakarta) dish, and is my dad's favourite for breakfast. When i was younger, we used to buy this from our neighbour, who sold it from the verandah of her house every day from 5 am to 7 am. By 7 am it was all gone. This is a very typical Indonesian way of doing business "at home"; despite the high demand, our neighbour didn't see the point of making more than she could sell in these 2 hours.
