Rice, Grain and Starch Dishes

Lemper is an Indonesian savoury snack of glutinous rice filled with seasoned shredded chicken, fish, abon or serundeng; the version filled with seasoned shredded chicken is called lemper ayam. The filling is rolled inside the rice in a fashion similar to an egg roll, which is then wrapped inside a banana leaf, oil paper, plastic sheet, tinfoil, or corn husk if banana leaf is unavailable; it is most often served as a snack, sometimes as an appetizer, with an elongated shape similar to lontong.
