Join me and let's see how to make Nasi Lemak

Instructions:

    Step 1
  • Wash the rice and drain it. Place it in a rice cooker with the coconut milk, pandan leaves (if available), lemongrass, and a pinch of salt. Cook the rice as you normally would, allowing it to soak in the coconut milk's rich flavor.
  • Step 2
  • While the rice is cooking, prepare the sambal. You can use store-bought sambal or make your own by sautéing dried anchovies in a pan with a little oil until crispy. Then, add the sambal paste and cook for a few minutes until fragrant.
  • Step 3
  • When the rice is ready, remove the pandan leaves and lemongrass. Fluff the rice with a fork.
  • Step 4
  • Serve a portion of coconut rice on each plate, and top with sambal, hard-boiled eggs, cucumber slices, roasted peanuts, and extra fried anchovies. You can also include some fresh vegetables or fried chicken if desired.
  • Step 5
  • Enjoy your homemade Nasi Lemak, a delightful and flavorful Malaysian dish that's perfect for any time of day!
