Gudeg Jogja
My good friend & a very pregnant neighbour, fanny, has been craving for this food for quite some time and I have promised to make it for her since few months ago ;)
I finally made it, just for her, for our thanksgiving dinner this past Thursday.
Although I made Gudeg only two times, they always turned out very good. So, I think every amateur cook like me can pull out this recipe =)
On both occasions I used the recipe from sexy chef.
This food is easy to make although a bit time consuming. But it's definitely worth the time and effort.
Enjoy!
