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.
