Nasi Lobak is a savory rice dish that combines white rice with sautéed radish with spiced chicken and dried shrimp. The aroma comes from a blend of garlic, ginger, and sesame oil, while oyster sauce and white pepper provide a distinctive umami flavor. The cooking process involves sautéing the ingredients until fragrant before cooking them with the rice in a rice cooker, resulting in a soft and flavorful rice texture.

Pindang Ikan Patin, a specialty of Palembang, is a spicy and sour soup with chunks of patin fish cooked in a spiced broth—pineapple, roasted candlenuts, lemongrass, galangal, ginger, and turmeric—plus shallots, garlic, tomatoes, and cayenne peppers. It is seasoned with salt, mushroom broth, and sugar, and finished with basil leaves for a fresh aroma. The sweet and sour taste of pineapple combines with the warmth of the spices and the heat of the cayenne pepper, creating a dish that is fresh, rich in flavor, and delicious when eaten warm.
