A must-try in #Java! Nasi ulam is a typical #betawi (people of #Jakatra) dish. The basis is nasi lemak, which is rice cooked in coconut milk, but what sets this dish apart is a hearty stew based on a traditional #Dutch soup recipe. The dish truly reflects foreign culinary traditions and Dutch influences on #Indonesia. (Image: Gunawan)
