    Laksa Kedah or Laksa Utara is from the northern state of Kedah. It’s a noodle soup with a fish based broth, thick rice noodles, shredded cucumber, various herbs like daun kesom (Vietnamese coriander), red onion and half a boiled egg. Kedah is known as the rice bowl of Malaysia and the rice noodles in a Kedah laksa are thick and bouncy and remind us a bit of udon. The fish broth is sour from the addition of tamarind and is similar to an asam laksa but more tart in flavour. The fresh vegetables and herbs add crunch and a freshness to the dish. All in all, it’s a satisfying bowl of noodles!
    We finish with a goblet of refreshing cendol, a common dessert or snack here in Malaysia. Made up coconut milk, shaved ice, pandan rice noodles, gula melaka and often additions like corn, kidney beans and jelly. Thomas eat the cendol with pulut or glutinous rice and Sheena opts for the original.
    Where we ate:
    Redup Rimba Corner
    Persiaran Pusat Bandar 1, Gerai no 2 kiosk Tasik Cempaka, 43650 Bandar Baru Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia
    Open Saturday to Thursday 11:00am to 7:00pm
    Halal

    Hi guys, we really loved sampling another type of laksa for this video. We are actually heading to Kedah for a week in December and will be visiting Alor Setar and Sungai Petani. If you have any recommendations on what we should eat when we’re there and where to eat them, let us know in the comments below! We really appreciate your suggestions- because locals know best 🤗🎉 Thanks to our subscribers who recommended we visit Redup Rimba Corner! Make sure you’ve subscribed to our channel: goo.gl/9rfeRS so you don’t miss out on more food videos! Thanks for watching, commenting, liking and sharing our content guys.

      Hey guys. Please check your email. I sent an email to you a couple of weeks ago. If you come to Alor Setar, my offer still stands (if I am not working, that is). But if you tell me your plans early, then I can take my needed annual leave to guide you through your Kedah adventures.

    How about writing an online Malaysian foodie magazines or article for westerner. Probsbly partnering up with Tourism Malaysia there

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому +4

      That would be neat to partner with Tourism Malaysia! We have our own website (www.chasingaplate.com) and often write articles on there about what we're eating to help travellers who are intending to visit countries we've been in 😀 Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment!

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      So true yangerek deone. Visitors to Malaysia don't realise the amazing variety of dishes out there to discover! I really hope our channel is helping people to realise this! 😀

    Hey guys, amazing video as always!
    Daun selom (water dropwort or water celery) is one of the many favourite 'ulam' (herbal salad) served alongside Malay dishes. You guys probably have seen 'ulam' in 'nasi campur' buffet, served with 'sambal belacan'.
    Good news that you guys are heading to Kedah! Post amazing videos and keep this hungry Malaysian drooling, will ya? Thanks!

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      Thanks so much Ummi Mansor 😀 Thanks so much for the info about daun selom and now that you mention it I'm pretty sure I've seen it in the ulam sections when we're out at lunch! I'll make sure I have a closer look next time. Hope you enjoyed this one and we will try our best to keep you drooling mate 😝 Cheers, Sheena

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому +1

      This is so interesting, thanks for this information mate. It's sad that the rice growing land is being made way for housing projects. We are looking forward to visiting Alor Setar and spending some time in Kedah. Thanks for watching this one and hope you enjoyed it mate! Cheers, Sheena

      Keeping this tip up our sleeves Amir Zikrifudin! Very good to know 😀 We loved this laksa and can't wait to eat more when we're in Kedah! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate. Cheers, Sheena

  • @seateawhomyra
    @seateawhomyra 7 років тому +2

    I'm not a Kedahan but whenever I think of its dishes; nasi lemak royale, bihun sup utara & nasi daging air asam utara come in mind.
    Nasi lemak royale has this yellow rice with different types of curries along. It's more like nasi kandar due to the curry than the original nasi lemak.
    Bihun sup utara is yellow vercimelli soup with red sambal (in other states, we usually eat bihun sup with sambal kicap - hot soy sauce - to add the spiciness)
    Nasi daging is translated as beef rice (yeah..not only we have chicken rice, but beef rice too 😉). The rice is cooked with spices (usually ginger & the '3 siblings' : cinnamon, star anise & clover), 'kurma' powder & the beef. Long story short, the dish is served with 'air asam', a dip that consists of tamarind water, shallots & bird's eye chillies. A simple dish but absolutely delicious & 1 of my favourite nasi 😀😀😀

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому +2

      My mouth was watering reading your comment seatea whomrya especially the bit about the nasi daging. I could almost taste that air asam!!! We can't wait to get our hands on a plate of it! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment mate. Hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena

  • @AhmadSharidanMohdAlias
    @AhmadSharidanMohdAlias 7 років тому +6

    Going to Kedah? Nasi Lemak Royale is on of the place to go. They have branch in KL but don't bother. Laksa Teluk Kechai is a different varian of Laksa Kedah. Try that too. But, on the way to Kedah, you must stop at Warongkoko in Bukit Mertajam, Penang to try their ABCD; Air Batu Campur Durian!

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      Awesome suggestions- thanks so much for these Ahmad Sharidan Mohd Alias! Nasi Lemak Royale and Laksa Teluk Kechai sound well worth a visit. Thanks for watching this one and for taking the time to comment. Cheers, Thomas 😀

  • @lunashuw
    @lunashuw 7 років тому +2

    If you visit Terengganu , you must have these dishes :

    2. Nasi Kerabu in Bukit Payong
    3. Laksa Penang ( Terengganu ver. - the colour is a bit lighter than kedah's ) You can find it in Gong Tok Nasek )
    4. Sup Tulang / Fried Rice / Seafood - absolutely delicious , a must try ( under the bridge at Pantai Chendering- name of the restaurant is Seafood Kuala Ibai Bawah Jambatan)
    5. Ikan Celup Tepung Teluk Ketapang and ICT ( Ikan Celup Tepung) Haji Pok Long (near Terengganu's Airport and Teluk Ketapang beach)
    6.Ayam Mad ( 1139, Jalan Pasir Panjang , Kampong Pasir Panjang , Terengganu ) a must , it taste like no other. Love it soooo much😍😍😍😍
    7. Nasi Beriyani Maaidah (you can find it at Maaidah Beriani House in Chendering or at Rusila) must go early or it will sold out.
    7. Ketupat Sotong
    8. Murtabak Daging and Ayam

    Naim Gulai Sembilang, Tanjung Dawai, Kedah ... its a bit far inside from Sungai Petani, but you will get an authentic ‘kampung’ dish ... then you can drop by the fresh raw ikan bilis stalls along Tanjung Dawai that you can cook for your nasik lemak.

    Laksa Kedah is great right ? Especially when eaten with Cendol (good choice). I am a Kedahan so I might be bias, hehe. When you came to Kedah, do try Nasi Ulam Utara & Sup Gear Box (Kedah version). You are definitely a Traveller & not a Tourist.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  6 років тому +1

    @4b1dd3n 7 років тому +2

    Ive always felt that Laksa Utara/Kedah is like a thinner and lighter version of Penang laksa, I much prefer the bolder flavour and thicker broth of the penang version, but thats just my personal preference. I know of a couple of friends who much prefer the thinner Kedah style Laksa.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      Totally agree Chris. It's definitely less punchy than a Penang laksa! Can't wait to get to Penang so we can do a taste comparison of sorts! Hope you enjoyed this one and thanks for commenting! Cheers, Sheena 😄

  • @zaini1388
    @zaini1388 7 років тому +2

    let me give you something that most kedahan wouldn't suggest not because its not good, but its so well hidden that only true hardcore foodies would find.
    Please google finaz sri Badong. its somewhere singkir darat.
    Get their Mee Tulang, Nasi Ayam, and Bihun sup and prepare to be suprise.
    and while your at it, take a detour and have some ais kacang salji at restoran dinalang, pendang.
    And please head to Alor Setar and atleast stay there for 2,3 days.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому +1

    "daun salam" or "daun kelat samak" or "daun serah" (malay) or "ubai serai" (borneo) or "manting" (jawa) or "gowok" (sunda) or "indonesisches lorbeerblatt" (german) or "salam leaf" - binomial name: "syzygium polyanthum (wight.) walp" or "eugenia polyantha wight" is native to borneo.
    "daun salam" is known only in malay and indonesian cooking and medicine. in many cookbooks "daun salam" is called "indian bay-leaf" but it is totally different.
    in the past, the dutch had named their colonies in the east as "east india", this is the reason why the "daun salam" is misunderstood as the "indian bay-leaf".
    if anyone knows better please add and make corrections to this information.

    Dear Sheena & Thomas 😊
    If u like a bowl of egg noodle with a thick gravy broth, please do give it a try on 'Mee Abu' at Jalan Sultanah, Alor Star/ Telok Wanjah, Alor Star..
    The beef broth is well blended with spices and sweet potatoes, sprinkle with crispy 'cucur' (fritters) and spicy hot sauce on top of that😋
    Ooo one more thing..have you try 'kuih peneram'
    it looks like a mini doughnut but different in texture and black in color.. super crispy on the outside & soft inside..normally you can find it at local night market where they mostly made it on the spot and freshly fried once order

    To really taste the original/traditional laksa Kuala Kedah, you must go to Kuala Kedah bcoz there's one condiment missing from the laksa that you've eaten here.
    Go to Kuala Kedah and you'll find out what I meant. Same goes for laksa Kuala Perlis though.

    @Esperalzi-Esfaral 7 років тому +1

    Malaysia has about 40 types of laksa, from Perlis to Sabah in Borneo. Basically two groups: (1) Laksa asam (sour laksa) in which NO santan (coconut milk) added, just sour soup containing mashed fish meat cooked in blended spices (chili, ginger, onion, shrimp paste). Northern laksa (kedah, Perak, Perlis, penang) are of this type) and (2) Coconut milk laksa - they add lot of santan and gravy looks like curry, they even use spaghetti and call it "laksa" which is weird - in Johor and Kelantan. I DON'T LIKE santan laksa.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      40 different types?! How amazing! Thanks for this explanation Esperalzi Esperal, it'll be useful for viewers who aren't as familiar with the two main types. We love both santan laksa AND laksa asam- YUM!! Cheers, Sheena

    It's Daun Selom = Selom Leaves its a local herb, If you're going to Kedah make sure to try Rosli Bihun Sup, Jitra Kedah. Nasi Lemak Royale Kedah, Laksa Teluk Kechai. Those are my fav hangout when I get back to my hometown. You should also try to find gulai batang pisang = banana stem curry, kerabu bronok= sea cucumber salad, pulut ayam and pulut panggang. I could name a lot more but I don't think you'd be able to eat them all, keep those videos coming and have a good trip to Kedah =)
    p.s Nasi Lemak in Kedah is a bit different to anywhere else in Malaysia,. Usually the rice is yellow in color.

    There's two types of tapai: 1. One is fermented rice as you stated; 2. Fermented tapioca (ubi). I'm not really sure if it is r really tapioca or not but we normally call it tapai ubi which means fermented tapioca/yam. I really think the cendol tapai should be the one with tapioca/yam because you already have the variation with glutinous/sticky rice there. Again I'm not really sure. 😀

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      Oh yea good point tomie myspace- I assumed it'd be the fermented rice just because I love that version but you're right- it could very wel be tapai ubi! 😝 I hope I can find one soon and try it to see which tapai it is. Thanks very much for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena 😀

    Hi guys, glad to hear you are travelling to the north. Laksa Teluk Kechai is a definite try because of its uniqueness (clear broth wiith coconut chilli paste on the side).
    Daun selom and daun putat (dark brown colour) are the leaves used in traditional Kedah laksa. And yes, the onion and cili padi adds to the nice aroma and taste.
    By the way, laksa Kedah do not use tamarind to make it sour. It uses dried asam gelugur (Garcinia atrovidis), more commonly known as asam keping.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      Hi jumbeaux1, thanks so much for that info on asam keping! I think I got confused as when I typed asam keping into google translate it was tamarind but it's a completely different fruit as you point out! So good to know this 😀 Can't wait to visit the north and we will definitely sample laksa teluk kechai- thanks for the recommendation! Thanks for watching and for commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena

  • @clarifier88

    Hi Sheena, it is Daun Selom.. do you remember eating ulam Pegaga with sambal belacan?.. if enjoy eating ulam with sambal belacan you have to try Daum Selom as ulam or its sister Ulam Raja (king). I bet ulam raja is a must! To make it more appetizing, a part from sambal belacan you may dip it with sambal tempoyak (fermented durian) or sambal cincalok (fermented shrimp.. melaka origin is the best). All of the dips give different pop in your mouth but obviously will bring the food taste up to the next level. Enjoy your stay in Malaysia 😊

    • @sabrinakss
      @sabrinakss 7 років тому +2

Then go catch the beautiful sunset at TITI SEMELING,, you get to see a long river surrounded by mangroves,, such a nice scenery to enjoy while having good foods at the titi semeling restaurant.

    I am from Alor Star, Kedah. truly, Kedah laksa is da BEST among all laksas in Malaysia! If you visit Alor Star, please visit a restaurant called "Restoran Laksa Ikan Sekor' (literally meaning 'Laksa with one whole fish restaurant'). They give you a laksa dish with one whole fish. At Jalan Gangsa (Gangsa Road), near my mom's house. But I see you are eating Laksa Kedah in Bangi. Don't know how authentic Kedah this laksa is.

    • @ChasingaPlate
      @ChasingaPlate  7 років тому

      ONE WHOLE FISH??!! We are definitely going to visit this place! Thanks for the recommendation mate. We will definitely be heading to Alor Setar so looking forward to trying Kedah laksa in Kedah! Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
