Kue kochi or koci (also known as passover cake in English[citation needed]) is a Maritime Southeast Asian dumpling-type kuih found in Javanese, Malay and Peranakan cuisine, typically made from black glutinous rice flour, and stuffed with coconut fillings with palm sugar.
In Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, this snack is often as a dessert and can be eaten at anytime (during breakfast or tea time). Due to its use in ancestral offerings, it has been suggested that the black colour of the unpolished rice symbolises death, while the sweet filling represents resurrection.
