Lemper is an Indonesian savoury snack made of glutinous rice filled with seasoned shredded chicken, fish, or abon (meat floss). The specific lemper filled with seasoned shredded chicken is called lemper ayam. Lemper are most often seen as snacks, but may sometimes be served as appetizers as well. Lemper usually have an elongated shape, similar to lontong.
Lemper is made by soaking and cooking the glutinous rice with coconut milk and salt. The filling is made of shredded chicken breast, chicken stock, garlic, candlenut, ground coriander, cumin, brown sugar, vegetable oil, minced shallot, coconut milk, kaffir lime leaves, salt and pepper. When the cooked glutinous rice is cool enough to handle, the chicken filling is placed on the glutinous rice and rolled in a banana leaf, wrapped and secured with biting or lidi semat, a small wooden "needle" made of coconut leaf midrib or bamboo. Then these banana leaf packages are steamed or grilled. This releases a distinct pleasant aroma of toasted banana leaf.
A variant snack almost identical to lemper is called semar mendem. It is lemper wrapped in thin omelette. Both are glutinous rice filled with shredded seasoned chicken. Instead of banana leaf wrapping, semar mendem uses a thin omelette as wrapper, hence rendering the whole package edible.
Beside chicken, lemper are sometimes filled with ….
vegetables
shredded pork
thin rice noodle
fish or meat floss
