Firstly you need a blender.. Add the following item in your blender.. 

1 tsp instant yeast
65g sugar 
300ml warm water

Let the yeast froth up for a couple of minutes and the add the rest of the ingredients in the blender and blitz until smooth..

1 egg
1/2 tsp baking powder 
1/4 tsp salt
250g flour
1/2 tsp vanilla essence 
1 tablespoon melted butter

Leave it for an hour to rise. Divide dough into 3 portions. Standby all the ingredients for fillings such as cream corn, condensed milk, chocolate rice, Nutella, nuts, grated cheese or whatever you prefer. You can also add flavours to the batter like pandan essence, cocoa powder or any other flavours.

Grease 6-7 inch pan with butter, pour one portion of the batter on low heat and cover . Martabak is cooked when the top part is not wet and has holes all over .

Transfer to a plate, spread topping, slice in halve and top with half of the Martabak. Spread melted butter over the stop and then cut into smaller portions  to serve.
