Rendang is officially recognised as one of Indonesia's national dishes. Rendang is also traditionally served among the Malay community in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei, as well as the Maranao in the Philippines. Rendang is often described as a rich dish of meat - most commonly beef ( rendang daging) - that has been slow cooked and braised in a coconut milk seasoned with a herb and spice mixture, until the liquids evaporate and the meat turns dark brown and tender, becoming caramelized and infused with rich flavours.Īs the signature dish of Minangkabau culture, rendang is traditionally served at ceremonial occasions to honour guests during festive events such as wedding feasts and Lebaran or Hari Raya (Indonesian popular words for both Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha). It has spread across Indonesian cuisine to the cuisines of neighbouring Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines. Rendang ( / ˈ r ə n d ɑː ŋ/ REN-DUNG Indonesian pronunciation: ) is a Minang dish originating from the Minangkabau region in West Sumatra, Indonesia.
