Bamboo Shoot Spring Roll (Lumpia Semarang)
Lumpia Semarang is a hawker street food dish which is originally come from Semarang, a capital city of Central Java province. It can also be found in other cities' hawker street stalls or in food courts around Indonesia.
Lumpia term derived from Lunpia or popiah, a chinese pastry from Fujian, China. Lumpia originally made by Chinese immigrant who migrated to Indonesia. This dish was quickly accepted by locals and modified using Indonesian's local ingredients.
Lumpia has a different filling compared to Lunpia or popiah. This Indonesian's version of Lunpia has some young bamboo shoots filing whilst Lunpia has bean sprouts, scrambled eggs, or turnip filling as a main ingredients. The Indonesian version of Lumpia are also have 2 variety of Lumpia: the wet one with white colour (the original wrapper colour is white and this is the steamed version of Lumpia) and the crunchy deep fried Lumpia with golden colour.
Biting into this crunchy deep fried golden pastry and you will find sweetness of finely shredded young bamboo shoots then soon these small salty dried shrimps will find out its way into your taste buds. This spring rolls has a main ingredient of young bamboo shoots and shrimps, mixed with these garlic, leek and some bean sprouts then cooked with sweet soy bean sauce. Its accompanying tauco sauce is also famously sweet with a bit tangy of garlicky taste.

"Kway Teow" aka "Shahe fen" aka "ricecake strips" aka kuetiau
Wide shahe fen stir-fried with soy sauceShahe fen noodles are white in color, broad, and somewhat slippery. Their texture is elastic and a bit chewy. They do not freeze or dry well and are thus generally (where available) purchased fresh, in strips or sheets that may be cut to the desired width. Where fresh noodles are not available, they may also be purchased packaged in dried form, in various widths.
Shahe fen noodles are very similar to Vietnamese bánh phở noodles, which are likely derived from their Chinese counterpart. Although the phở noodles used in soups may vary in width, wide phở noodles are also common in stir fried dishes. The popular Thai dishes pad see ew and drunken noodles are also made with similar noodles.
With a little bit of Indonesian touch, below is my interpretation for the Kway Teow for Teras Bali.
