Indonesian cuisine
Indonesian cuisine reflects the vast variety of people that live on the 13,000 islands that make up Indonesia.The main meal in Indonesia is usually served at midday. Most meals are built around a cone-shaped pile of long-grain, highly polished rice. A meal may include a soup, salad, and another main dish. Whatever the meal, it is accompanied by at least one, and often several relishes that are called sambals.
The most popular dishes that originated in Indonesia are common across most of Asia, with satays, beef Rendang and sambals favored in Malaysia and Singapore.
