About
Lemper ( ) is an Indonesian savoury snack made of glutinous rice filled with seasoned shredded chicken, fish, abon or serundeng. The specific lemper filled with seasoned shredded chicken is called lemper ayam. The meat filling is rolled inside the rice, in a fashion similar to an egg roll; this is in turn rolled and wrapped inside a banana leaf, oil paper, plastic sheet, or tinfoil to make a packet ready for serving. If banana leaf is not available, corn husk can be used. Lemper are most often seen as snacks, but may sometimes be served as appetizers as well. Lemper usually has an elongated shape, similar to lontong.
