broth powder
Tapioca powder as needed
Tofu, cut into small slices, steamed
Directions:

2. Cook water, flour, garlics and broth powder until boiled. Stir well until smooth and thickened.
3. Add the fish paste into the flour mix and stir well until all blended together.
4. Add tapioca powder gradually until the fish mix becoming smooth and can be kneaded.
5. Take 1 tabelspoon of the dough and make a small ball, make it flat and fill in with a piece of tofu. Do the same until the tofu finished. If the tofu finished and you still have left over dough, you can make fish balls and it's called "Pempek Adaan".
6. After all dough been filled, put them in boiling water and let them cooked until they're floating. Then you can deep fry the pempek.
And for the sauce, use Dark cuko sauce.

And on topic, it is hard to find pempek that is as nice as the one they sell in Indonesia here in Melbourne, but when I try to make them, I stick to the recipe, but it is never as nice as the ones in Indo.
