Crispy chips, fried in vegetable oil, of the ketale pohon or cassava (also known as yucca), an oblong tuberous root from Indonesia

Emping or kriepiek (small krupuk) is a side dish that looks like krupuk. It is made of the almost ripe, peeled melinjo nuts which are flattened with a special hammer and then dried in the sun. Before it can be consumed, emping is baked in oil for 2 to 5 seconds.

This emping is well-suited for culinary connoisseurs because of its specific flavour. The chilli sauce makes the emping sweet and a little spicy. It tastes great with your rice dishes, but can also be eaten as a snack.
