Batagor, short for Baso Tahu Goreng, is a traditional dish from Bandung that has been influenced by Chinese-Indonesian cuisine and is now popular throughout Indonesia. It typically consists of softened tofu stuffed with a mixture of mackerel fish and tapioca flour, and is a rich source of omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and selenium. However, one potential side effect of consuming batagor is weight gain.
Batagor first appeared in various cities across Indonesia in the 1980s, but it is believed to have originated in Bandung in 1968. According to legend, batagor was created to repurpose unsold meatballs.
Omega 3 fatty acids offer numerous benefits, including promoting heart health, maintaining eye and bone health, and reducing the risk of heart disease. Vitamin B12 aids in the formation of blood cells, prevents anemia, osteoporosis, and dementia, and reduces the risk of birth defects. Selenium is known to help ward off free radicals, boost immunity, alleviate asthma symptoms, and support thyroid health and function.
Overindulging in batagor can lead to weight gain due to its high fat and calorie content. Several factors, such as a sedentary lifestyle and genetics, can also contribute to weight gain.
