Baked Indonesian Tuna-Melt Rissoles

Just like the two previous posts, this is another (presumed to be) an adaptation from colonialists' cuisine. Popularly called as Risoles, this one is the Indonesian style of Rissole and baked version :)

The truth is, rissoles refers to several different foods, depend on the country. If you googled "Rissoles Recipe", you will find various version of it. This recipe from Australia, for example, resemble the look of meatball. Even Google Search equates word "rissoles" with "meatball".

The Indonesian version itself is rather unique: it's deep fried and looks like spring roll covered with bread crumbs, the traditional is usually filled with sauteed carrots and potato, while the contemporary is fulfilled with mayonnaise and smoked beef.

And how this rissoles finally available in Indonesia? The most popular theory stated the possibility of this rissoles to be Dutch-adapted. On 13th Century, this food was only a crepe, but then later it's filled with minced beef. Actually, I tried to google this "Dutch Rissoles", but I found nothing.

Another presumption is the term "rissoles" was coming from Portuguese rissoles, the deep fried, half-moon shaped pastry filled with fish or prawn bechamel. I thought this theory is making more sense, both final display look like sisters, both are coated with bread crumbs and involving wrapping shells.

There is also a possibility for this cuisine to be created in Indonesia, with both Portuguese and Dutch (and also Chinese?) influences. Anyway, the name "rissoles" itself was coming from French, which means "to make brown/red". So I guess as long as it's going brown it's fine to called it Rissole :)

For this risoles, I simplify this recipe and baked it for more cholesterol friendly.
