Ongrizinal Nasi Lemak 王子の椰浆饭

Nasi lemak is rice cooked with pandan flavour  extract and coconut milk.

Serve with sambal bilis, hard boiled egg, sliced cucumber, roasted peanut and deepfried anchovies..  I personally develop a exquisite taste to have it with curry dahl. 

Curry Dal

Curry Dal is my favorite.  I like it to go with roti canai and nasi lemak.  I like it so much that I decided not to be held ransom by the Mamak stall operators.  So the next logical course of action is to prepare my own concoction.

So, I seek the advice from K, and so she says….
