Indonesian rice table
(Redirected from Rijstafel)
An Indonesian rice table (in Dutch, rijsttafel) consists of rice accompanied by several, often spicy side dishes served buffet-style. Popular side dishes include egg rolls, sambals, satay, fish, fruit, vegetables, pickles, and nuts. It is a Dutch colonial adaptation of the Indonesian makan besar, and popular in both Indonesia and the Netherlands.
The number of side dishes depends mainly on the number of guests; in a restaurant, as many as two dozen side dishes may be served.
