Tahu Telur
Tahu Telur is a beloved Surabayan street food that transforms humble tofu and eggs into something extraordinary. Firm tofu is crumbled and mixed into a beaten egg batter, then fried into a thick, crispy omelette that is golden on the outside and soft inside. The dish is elevated by its signature sauce, a sweet, tangy, and spicy dressing made from peanuts, kecap manis, petis (shrimp paste), and tamarind that is poured lavishly over the top.
