takoyaki

An Indonesian twist on the Japanese food of the same name, derived from the Javanese phrase "tak oyaki" which means "I tear it." These ball-shaped treats are made from a wheat flour-based batter and cooked in a special pan. However, instead of the traditional minced octopus, they’re usually stuffed with sausage—perfect for local tastes!
I was craving street food, so I grabbed some takoyaki filled with sausage—definitely hit the spot and way easier to find than the original octopus version!
