Spicy grilled rice indonesian style (Nasi Bakar)

The only difficult part of this cooking is actually finding the banana leaf. It’s not always available in my local asian store.
“ Coconut rice is cooked with aromatic herbs topped with tuna and basil and then wrapped with banana leaves and grilled to perfection. Can be made with rice cooker or stove-top “
Nasi bakar is my definition of fancy comfort food !!!

Steps
- 1
Cook them rice. Plain jasmine rice totally works too. I personally like to use leftover rice since the texture isnt too moist to cook again
- 2
In a hot wok, saute the garlic, onion, chilis, tuna, mushroom. Basil leaves on the last step. If you have sambal in your kitchen put that in too, helps with constipation 🤣 Add salt paper chicken cube stock. Add water. Leave some water, it's a whole new level when mixed with rice.
- 3
Prepare your banana leaves. HOW TO WRAP: 1) place a bigger layer on the bottom (to later fold the ends), and a second smaller layer in the middle to set the rice
- 4
Arrange the cooked rice and the filings. Fold the top and bottom of the leaves and secure with toothpicks
- 5
Grill that beautiful fat looking packet in a grilling pan / any flat pan. Each side about 5 minutes until you smell the aroma. The leaves will have some burn marks in them and that means it’s cooked perfectly.

Enjoy while it's hot
