Kue ape

Kue ape is a popular traditional Indonesian pancake, also called serabi Jakarta, meaning Jakarta style serabi, and kue cucur tipis, meaning thin cucur, which sets it apart from the thicker kue cucur. Each cake has a soft, fluffy centre surrounded by a thin, crispy crepe-like rim. It is commonly sold as street food, found especially in Jakarta and other major cities of Indonesia. Its rounded centre gives it a colloquial nickname that many Indonesians consider impolite to say aloud, so most simply call it kue ape, a name that plays on the question what cake. It is also described as very similar to serabi Solo.
