Lemang is a traditional food, originating with the Iban people of Indonesia and Malaysia, which is cooked in a hollowed bamboo stick lined with banana leaves in order to prevent the rice from sticking to the bamboo. Usually prepared for festivities such as Hari Gawai, lemang is made of glutinous rice and coconut milk. Some lemang recipes add corn. Lemang is usually eaten with chicken curry. Lemang is also topped with durian.
Lemang is also popular in Indonesian Malay and Iban communities and of course Trengganu, usually prepared by using the tapai method. Lemang can now be found throughout Indonesia due to the spread of Minangese people throughout the country.
Lemang is traditionally eaten by Malay Muslim to celebrate the annual Eid-ul-Fitr. Aboriginal of Malaysia (Negrito and Jahai) also practice cooking rice in bamboo.
