Javanese literature of the 18th and 19th centuries is based essentially on
anonymous "macapat" poems which use various techniques of prosody.
These poems were generally handed down orally by the singers.
This record is by the finest reciter of the period, dalang R.S. Banjaransari, the street singer Sunarto
and finally, Niken Larasati who was the leading female singer
at Pakualaman Palace in Yogyakarta.

Strain the oil through a fine piece of cloth. The strained oil is the ghee or clarified butter.
Heat the ghee in a skillet or wok. Over medium-high heat,
