Nasi Lemuni is a rice dish originating from Malaysia. It's traditionally eaten as a confinement dish as it is believed that vitex trifolia, the herb, can enhance blood flow, balance hormones, and improve one's digestion. It's similar to nasi lemak but it's cooked with an herb known as daun lemuni (English: Vitex trifolia leaves).
Sometime people eat it with sambal, fried chicken, anchovies, cucumber, and hard boiled egg. It is suitable to eat during breakfast and lunch.
