Tahu tek-tek — from Surabaya, East Java — is a street-food assemblage of fried tofu, lontong (compressed rice), fried potato, and bean sprouts, dressed in petis (INDO-PETIS-01) thinned with water and mixed with peanut sauce. The name comes from the "TEK-TEK" sound of the vendor tapping a metal spatula against the serving plate while mixing.
