How to make Nasi Lemak - Malaysian Food
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 лис 2014
- This is one of the most popular dishes eaten in Malaysia, they call it their National dish - Nasi Lemak. Which is coconut steamed rice eaten with a spicy sambal, egg, cucumber, peanuts and ikan bilis. It's also had with a rendang curry or fried chicken. I would have this for breakfast when back in Malaysia but you can get hold of it anytime of day!
You can find all my recipes on my blog www.carolineartiss.com/
Coconut Rice:
Ingredients:
• 2 cups of long grain white rice, washed
• 2 pandan leaves - or I used 2 stalks crushed lemon grass
• Ginger about 1 inch, sliced.
• A little pinch of fenugreek-
• ½ cup of coconut milk
• 2 cups water
• Pinch salt.
This is really easy if you have a rice cooker you simply toss all ingredients in and switch onto cook.
If you have saucepan to cook in, it’s still very simple, Put all ingredients into the pan, bring to the boil then immediately turn heat to it’s lowest setting, put a lid on the pan and leave to cook really gently for 10 - 15 minutes.
Sambal with Ikan Bilis
This is a spicy chilli sauce that is served with many dishes in Malaysia, but it goes especially well with Nasi lemak. You can make a big batch and store it for a long time in the fridge.
Ingredients:
• 15 dried long red chillies
• 5 shallots (or 2 brown onions)
• 5 cloves garlic
• 1 stalk lemon grass (optional)
• 5 tsp brown sugar
• ¾ cup tamarind juice
• 1 cup water
• ½ cup dried small anchovies (ikan bilis)
Method:
Soak chillies in water for 30 minutes before using.
Blend the soaked chillies, shallots and garlic in a food processor until smooth. Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan and fry the paste for 10 - 15 minutes, until it has reached a dark red color.
Add the sugar, ikan bilis and water and leave to simmer gently for 30 minutes. Make sure you keep an eye on it and add a little more water if it looks like it’s too dry and might burn.
Stir in the tamarind juice and a squeeze of lime juice for extra flavor at the end.
This will keep for 1 month in the fridge.
To finish off the nasi lemak, serve the coconut rice with the sambal, a boiled egg, some roasted peanuts and small dried anchovies and a slice of cucumber. A wonderful meal.

Really miss masi lemak ...😓😓😓
How to get in pak
didnt know that youre half Malaysian.. hahah hello there :-)
Great recipe, but I thought nasi lemak has chicken in it with some kind of sauce? That's how I had it in Malaysia. I love nasi lemak though so many new flavors going on.
Omer Choudhry Hello ! the complete nasi lemak usually consists of the rice (coconut milk rice) , sambal , fried anchovies , fried peanuts , cucumber , hard boiled egg . You can replace the boiled egg with sunny side up egg too . Other than that , you can have it with fried chicken , beef rendang and chicken rendang . i thinj you are talking about Chicken Rendang it's one of the most common dish for nasi lemak !!!
thank you for liking my comment
can you tell me what to say in malaysian language if we need Boil plain Rice with lantil (Daal)
nasi putih
#nasilemak #yummylicious
there is the cucumber? fried fish or chicken?
Hi
holly molly you are beautiful man!
if the sambal has belacan, it will taste so much better ^_~
is shrimp paste the same thing?? i cant find belcan in my country!!!
well, basically belacan is made out of shrimp so maybe you can try using shrimp paste
what in the world ?? you don't put belacan in your sambal !
iam from malaysia I mi$
why no coconut milk into sambal>
Jarang pulak org campur santan dlm sambal
Singapore nasi lemak tastes better cos it's their national dish. It's at upper serangoon stall.
Its malaysian national food, singaporean national food is chicken rice.
nasi lemak is malaysian national food and not Singaporean
bare in mind every weekend 50,000 Singaporean cross border to malaysia just for food
P
Nothing to do with Steve Lemak
You did not at the chicken
Damn you're beautiful!!!
+juniyananajukyu awwww, that's so sweet thank you!! Hope you enjoy my recipes x
+Caroline artiss you're welcome! As for the sambal, is there a substitute for that? I'm thinking it might be a little too spicy for me? And is the ikan bilis just the regular dried anchovies? It's cool how Malaysian cooking and Filipino cooking have so much similarities, but I guess it's also due to close proximity of both countries. At any rate, I'm excited to try this recipe! Have a good one :)
