Arem-arem

Arem-arem is a Indonesian snack hailing from Java. It consists of a cylindrical rice cake that's wrapped in a banana leaf. The snack is stuffed with tempeh, chopped vegetables, oncom, or abon beef floss. There are many variations on arem-arem, so no fixed recipe really exists.

The rice is usually flavored with coconut milk. Arem-arem can be found in Indonesian markets, and it's often served for birthdays, meetings, or family gatherings.
