Nasi Campur, Balinese version

Nasi Campur, literally meaning mixed rice, is a delicious classic Indonesian favorite that consists of rice topped with various meats, vegetables, peanuts, egg and fried-shrimp chips, and it is a staple meal of the country. The Balinese version of mixed rice has several kinds of dishes (grilled tuna, fried tofu, cucumber, spinach, tempe, beef cubes, vegetable curry, corn, chili sauce) on the top. Mixed rice is often sold by street vendors, wrapped in banana leaf.

For Chinese Indonesians, the term nasi campur also refers to nasi Hainam, a dish of Hainanese chicken rice with an assortment of Chinese barbecue, such as Char Siew, crispy roast pork and sweet pork sausage. This dish is normally served with sayur asin, a somewhat sour - despite asin meaning salty - and clear broth of pork bones with fermented mustard greens.
