Botok or ꦧꦺꦴꦛꦺꦴꦏ꧀ (Bothok) (sometimes called Bobotok in its plural form or Botok-botok) is a traditional Javanese dish made from grated coconut flesh which has been squeezed of its coconut milk, often mixed with other ingredients such as vegetables or fish, and wrapped in banana leaf and steamed.[3] The grated coconut flesh is mixed with chili, salt, pepper, lemon basil, and salam (Indonesian bay leaf) and additional ingredients.After perfectly cooked, the grated coconut and sometimes the egg addition, act as the binding agent of the whole botok ingredients.[4] To add flavor and nutrients, many botok recipes and variants might use additional ingredients as a protein source, such as petai cina, belimbing wuluh, ares (the core of a banana trunk), mushroom, tofu, tempeh, anchovy, wahoo, catfish, salted fish, egg, salted egg, shrimp, minced beef or even bee larvae.[13] It is, however, quite different as it uses minced beef and eggs, with the absence of grated coconut and banana leaf packages.
