Nasi Lemak, a rice-based dish cooked in coconut milk and served on a pandan leaf.
The name translates to “rich” or “fatty” rice, a name derived from the cooking process: the rice is steamed and simmered in coconut milk, giving it a rich and creamy texture and flavor.
That done, the nasi lemak is served with any number of accompaniments, depending on the time of day : this usually includes sambal, along with sliced cucumber, hard-boiled egg, anchovies , roasted peanuts, and meat.
Then, just mix and match the flavors any way you wish!
