A taste of Malaysia
Malaysia is a fertile land where diverse cultures have mingled for centuries, creating exciting culinary traditions. The spicy, often pungent ethnic Malay tastes are enriched with Chinese, Indian and Thai flavours. This rich cuisine is characterized by the enthusiastic marrying of savoury, sweet, sour and spicy flavours. Continued at right...
Its dishes often include large quantities of hot peppers, and our recipes reflect this tradition, but we have also created milder versions that still do justice to the originals.
Malaysian food is always served with plenty of white rice, and we have recommended simple sides that reflect Malaysian eating habits. After highly spiced meals, Malaysians most often enjoy fruit plates or simple ices or iced drinks – and we suggest you do, too.
So pique the taste buds of your family or guests with our authentic Malaysian main dishes, which have been fully adapted to Canadian kitchens. As with any recipe, it’s a good idea to read these through to help you organize ingredients and methods.
