Ketupat
This is a dish with sticky rice wrapped into triangular shaped coconut leaf pockets. These are then held together with satay skewers and then steamed. Once cool, one must open the leaves and eat the sticky rice dipped in a peanut chilli sauce. Usually chicken satay is also served with ketupat. Cucumber slices accompany this dish to balance the fiery taste.
