There 2 different meaning of Ketoprak. One is a traditional performing art from Central Java, and the other one is the popular kind of food from Jakarta. Of course, we are talking about the later. The ingredients are vermicelli, bean sprouts, fried tofu coated in egg, sliced spring onions & fried shallots. Peanut sauce are poured over it, and some crackers are added before serving. Definitely a signature dish from Jakarta.
