Editing Lakso

'''Lakso''' is a traditional dish originating from the [[Indonesia|Indonesian]] region of [[Bangka Belitung]]. It is a type of noodle soup, similar to [[ramen]] or [[pho]], but with its own unique flavors and ingredients.

The dish is often garnished with fresh [[cilantro]], [[bean sprouts]], and fried [[shallots]].

== Preparation ==
To prepare Lakso, the fish is first boiled to create a rich broth. The herbs and spices are then added to the broth and simmered until the flavors are well combined. The rice noodles are cooked separately and then added to the broth. The dish is served hot, often with a side of [[sambal]], a spicy Indonesian condiment.
