Vegan Lempers ENG

Vegan lempers, can you do that at all? Yeah! And they're great, too. Despite the fact that I've never been to Indonesia (yeah really, I'm not kidding) I know that lempers exist. And man oh man, what a pleasure are lempers!
Did you know that you actually pronounce lempers as lumpers? This is a delicious Indonesian snack usually with chicken or minced meat. But that's not necessary at all and you can make it vegan too! At the end of the day, it's all about the structure but above all about the herbs you add. So if you want to put an original snack on the table on these rolls of rice, everyone will be crazy!
