Lemang

Lemang is another must food during Hari Raya Aidilfitri in Malaysia. Lemang is made of glutinous rice and coconut milk and cooked in a hollowed bamboo stick line with banana leaves in order to prevent the rice from sticking to the bamboo. This style of cooking was introduced by the Iban Dayak tribe in Borneo. They usually eat Lemang during their celebration such as Iban harvest festival of Hari Gawai and they eat with chicken curry.
