Discover the culinary gem of Aceh with Kanji Rumbi, a savory porridge bursting with unique flavors. Similar to chicken porridge found elsewhere in Indonesia, Kanji Rumbi stands out with its distinctive blend of rice and spices. Typically enhanced with shrimp and tender meat, this dish also features diced carrots and potatoes, simmered alongside the rice to create a hearty and satisfying meal. During Ramadan, Kanji Rumbi becomes a staple for breaking the fast in Acehnese villages, especially in the Pidie Regency, where it's freely distributed in mosques and community centers. Across various cities and districts in Aceh, local governments facilitate the distribution of Kanji Rumbi, often in grand mosques. Believed to aid digestion after a day of fasting, this traditional dish holds a special place in the hearts and stomachs of those observing Ramadan in Aceh. #porridge
