This beautiful fusion of flavours found a home there and presented a world full of tantalizing flavours that you surely do not want to miss. Here are 5 of the best dishes that you need to get your hands on-whenever you visit Malaysia or at your local Malaysian restaurant.
1. Nasi Lemak
Nasi lemak is considered as the unofficial national dish of Malaysia. It is roughly translated as ‘rice in cream’. In this the regular white rice is soaked in luscious coconut cream which is then steamed to perfection. It is often accompanied by spicy sauce (sambal), hard-boiled eggs, cucumber slices, lamb/chicken/or beef curry and seafood.
