Summary

Malaysia's cuisine is an exciting blend of Malay, Chinese, Indian, Eurasian and Nonya cooking. Drawing on their multi-ethnic heritage, Malaysians have developed unique variations on Asian favourites like Malay Chicken Satay, Chinese Fried Kway Teow and Indian Chicken Curry Puffs. Added to these are exotic creations like the fiery Portuguese Baked Fish prepared by Malacca's Eurasian community, Kelantanese Nasi Ulam (rice blended with handfuls of freshly chopped herbs) and savoury Butter Prawns-a dish that blends seasonings from all of Malaysia's major ethnic groups. This book provides a selection of unforgettable recipes, at the same time introducing the reader to the nation's diverse cultural and culinary traditions.
