Can anyone tell me why Jemput-jemput is called by some, Cekodok? I don't see any resemblance of the food to a frog. And why in the world would anyone name their food after such slimy and hideous creature?
Anyway, I was in my very rare mood to cook and last weekend I had a sudden craving for Jemput-jemput Bawang...with LOTS of thickly sliced onion. I would usually crispy-deep fry them so that they become real crunchy on the outside but soft in the inside with thick pieces of juicy onion. I love dipping these Jemput-jemput Bawang with chili sauce. Yummy! Now, isn't Jemput-jemput a nicer name for such a delicious traditional food?
