Timphan Asoe Kaya
Aceh province, the westernmost province in Indonesia that has a myriad stories of history, culture, religiosity, conflict, and culinary tastes. Not only a cuisine that is rich in spices, Aceh is also quite creative in cooking process. One of them is timphan. Timphan is a typical Aceh cake that usually contains coconut and srikaya (asoe kaya) and wrapped in banana leaves.
In past time timphan were only made for family feast and religious celebration such as maulid nabi, eid al-fitr and eid al- adh but now you can find them al-the-year round at coffe shop throghtout Aceh espesially in Banda Aceh.
If you want to eat them you should go for morning coffe because they' re usually sold out in the afternoon. Or you can buy it at a cake seller who sells it in the morning.
This soft cake made from grated coconut ( kelapa parut ) and egg jam ( sri kaya ) so made into a roll with rice flour dough about as long as your middle finger. Each one of these is then separately rolled in special banana leaves and cooked by steaming.

Welcome to #ccc @rfajrina.. Glad to see another Acehnese Steemians joining the community. Sweet Egg custard maybe the best word for asoekaya, and from the wrapped leaves I can tell that it's not the finest leaves like pusang wak or kepok or pusang ayam leaves, a bit darker 😊 well you should mentioned about the filling of timphan, it's not just sweet egg custard or egg jam. But also sweetened coconut shred right?
Thanks for sharing and I hope you can put your comments on other posts too.. Have a nice day
Thanks for welcoming me in this community #ccc
yes the color of leaves that wraps this timphan is a bit dark, because it uses the leaves of banana "Taloon". this photo I took home my brother when eid al-fitr ago. and thanks for the suggestion bang @dipoabasch for asoe kaya pronunciation in English sweet egg custard
