First time hearing and didn’t have time to google before I join this trip, hence I have minimal to almost no expectation of Nasi Kluban. And if you read this entry of mine, my only (sincere) advice to you is, go try eat…. SUMPAH SEDAP GILER.
But I heard it is not sold everywhere, so I foresee this
will be a challenge.
Similar to Nasi Ambeng (write about it earlier, click HERE
to read), Nasi Kluban originated from Java Island in Indonesia, and is usually
served during festivities such as thanksgivings (majlis kesyukuran) such as kid
birthdays and aqiqah. It is frequently served during majlis melenggang perut
(baby shower) which is usually at the 7th month of the pregnancy.
Nasi Kluban too is presented in a large tray or ‘dulang’ and
enjoyed by a group of 4 to 5 people. It signifies unity and togetherness also
encourages the act of caring and sharing among family members, friends and
fellow villagers just like Nasi Ambeng. It is also said that the food is to be
divided equally and guest to bring it home and share it with family members.
As I love the kluban (kerabu) so much, I shall share the
recipe here. It is pretty easy to make… nanti nak buat lah.
