Martabak manis is a thick, spongy pancake cooked in a heavy pan, then spread with margarine and filled with chocolate sprinkles, peanuts, cheese or condensed milk before being folded. It is a night-time treat usually bought whole to share.
Margarine is spread generously while it is hot and soaks into the holes in the batter. Modern toppings such as spreads and biscuits make every piece richer.
