Description
Nasi bakar — flavoured rice (usually with bumbu, chicken, anchovies, or sambal mixed in) wrapped in banana leaf and grilled over charcoal. The grilling chars the banana leaf exterior while the rice inside absorbs the smoke through the leaf pores. The result: smoky, fragrant rice with a caramelised banana-leaf aroma on the exterior surface.
