Nasi liwet is a kind of food from Central Java. As we know, rice cooked
just by water, but nasi liwet is rice that cooked by coconut milk. It
is traditional javanese way in cooking from past to now. In the past,
the pan used for cooking made by soil. The taste will be more
delightful if it cooked by firewood but different region have different
way. Nasi liwet usually serve together with Opor Ayam (chicken opor),
Telur Pindang (pindang of egg), and sechium edule as the vegetable.
Traditionally, it served on a banana leaf or teakwood leaf. Personally,
I prefer to choose teakwood leaf as the substitute of plate, because of
the special aroma. The aroma will increase our appetite. Should be
noted that nasi liwet complements could not be separated from coconut
milk.
