Nasi ambeng or nasi ambang is an Indonesian fragrant rice dish that consists of—but is not limited to[2]—steamed white rice, chicken curry or chicken stewed in soy sauce, beef or chicken rendang, sambal goreng (lit. fried sambal; a mildly spicy stir-fried relish commonly made with firm tofu, tempeh, and long beans[3]) urap, bergedel, and serunding.

It is a popular food in Javanese cuisine, especially within the Javanese-Malay communities[4] in Singapore[5] and the Malaysian states of Johor and Selangor where they also added fried noodles as additional condiments.[6][7]

Nasi ambeng is often served communal dining-style on a platter[8] to be shared among four to five people, especially during festive or special occasions such as a kenduri.[9]
