I bought some roti jala yesterday, and that stall also had "serabai" written on its menu (technically it was not a menu, but the back of half of a polysterene box :P ) I asked the seller, what is serabai? She replied that it was sold out. I guess she didn't know how to describe it...
I didn't think of searching for it last night... but it just came back to me. Better late than never, right? :P
So I found this: kuih serabai.
"Ia popular di negeri Kedah, Melaka dan Sabah." (It is popular in Kedah, Melaka and Sabah.)
That's a number of disjointed states...but probably explains why I haven't seen it before. Not found on the East Coast, huh?
Turns out that it's made of rice flour, santan and eggs (plus some other ingredients). It sounds, and from the photo on Wikipedia, looks a bit like the Indian apom to me. Except that this has some sweet sauce to go with it. I will give it a try next time if there's any left!
