Bakmi

Noodle and Dumpling Dishes

Bakmi, also called bami, is a wheat based noodle dish derived from Chinese cooking tradition, brought to Indonesia by Chinese immigrants from southern Chinese provinces such as Fujian. It is typically seasoned with soy sauce and topped with pork products, though other proteins are commonly substituted in predominantly Muslim Indonesia. Chinese style wheat noodles including bakmi have become among the most common noodle dishes in Southeast Asian countries with significant Chinese populations.
