This looks so delicious! I love that freshly grated coconut is used. Using fresh ingredients (instead of dry) always boosts the flavour of a dish:)

Thanks:)

Nusantara is an Indonesian word, originated from Old Javanese and literally means "archipelago.”

The word Nusantara was taken for an oath by Gajah Mada, as written in an old Javanese manuscript by Negarakertagama. Gajah Mada was a powerful military leader and Prime Minister of the Majapahit Empire who was credited with bringing the Empire to its peak of glory.

Gajah Mada delivered an oath called "Sumpah Palapa", in which he vowed not to eat any food containing spices, until he had conquered all of Nusantara, under the glory of Majapahit.
The "Palapa Oath" (where the term Nusantara was first used) is in reality the embryo of the modern unitary state of The Republic of Indonesia.

In the context of the Majapahit empire:
1. Negara Agung- covered East Java and surrounding areas
2. Mancanegara- the entire Java island, Madura, Bali and Palembang in South Sumatra
3. Nusantara- (non-Javanese culture, but are colonies where they have to pay tribute)- the modern territories of Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Brunei, East Timor and Southern Thailand.

In 1920, Dr Setiabudi introduced a name, Nusantara for his country (Indonesia) which did'nt contain words inherited from the Indian language. Nusantara, the defination of Setiabudi is different from the 14th century defination during the Majapahit era- wikipedia
