Nasi Lemuni Sambal Sotong

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Musim-musim hujan macam ni, sedap kalau makan nasi lemuni panas-panas. This what I cooked days before. The rice was cooked together with this special leaf known as 'lemuni' in the northen part of Malaysia. You can see how the leaf looks like on the left side. Making it is simple. Just like cooking any nasi lemak except that you need to add some blended lemuni leaf together when cooking the rice. So, here is what you need to cook this lemuni rice: 3 cups of rice grains - rinse 1 handful of lemuni leafs (only the leaf, remove the stems) - blend with 1 cup of water 1 inch of ginger - sliced 1 onion - sliced 3 cups of coconut milk.

Set the rice cooker to cook. And whalla! the rice will cook to perfection. To add taste to it. Ea...

Santan-less Chicken Rendang

The ingredients: 2 stalk of lemon grass 2 inches of ginger 1 inch of fresh tumeric 2 large onions 4 red chillis 10 small chillis (cili padi) Blend all the above ingredients in a blender till fine. Other ingredients: Chicken - Cleaned and cut into small pieces to your liking. I leave the skin on this time. 1 cup of evaporated milk tumeric leave...
