There are those who prefer to buy gudeg instead of cooking it themselves, that’s fine, to make it more practical and not complicated.
But if anyone wants to try to process it yourself, there’s nothing wrong with that.
Adjusted to our taste, gudeg which is not too sweet and spicy krecek fried chili sauce.
And… if you cook it warm, it can be for two or three days, so tomorrow is a cooking holiday.. energy efficient.
For breaking the fast or sahur… that’s okay…
