Brengkes is a Javanese word that refers to a specific dish, i.e. a fish slathered with spices and wrapped in a banana leaf.[1]
The most commonly used fish is a "pindang", which is a Javanese word for a fermented fish.[2] Hence "brengkes pindang" is the most popular type of this dish.[3] Peda (salted fish) can also be used.[1]
