Lempeng Kelapa Chia Seed (Coconut Crepe with Chia Seeds)

Lempeng is an all time favourite in our household, usually served for breakfast or during afternoon tea. Lempeng goes very well with Sambal Anchovy or Sambal Sardine.  How was this “invented? I presumed during the olden days Mother’s have to prepare breakfast for large family and and at the quickest time as they need to attend to their farm or household chores. So they would mix flour, water and salt into a  batter and pan fried them, and with coconut is in abundance, they added some grated coconut into the batter. This recipe I am sharing will be based on #TAGPakUu (Seasoned Flour mix) as the based ingredient for the basic lempeng with the option to add other ingredients to it.
