About this dish
Arem-arem is an Indonesian-Javanese compressed rice cake in the form of a cylinder wrapped inside a banana leaf, filled with diced vegetables, tempeh, or oncom, and eaten as a snack. It is sometimes also filled with minced meat or abon (beef floss). Arem-arem is often described as a smaller size lontong with fillings, so it is sometimes also called lontong isi (lit. 'filled lontong'). It is common in Java, and often found in Indonesian marketplaces as jajan pasar ("market munchies"), a type of kue (snack) offered there. Arem-arem is served at traditional ceremonies, family gatherings, birthdays or office meetings, and is often presented in a snack box. It is quite similar to lemper, but uses regular rice instead of sticky rice.
