Authentic Malaysian Palace Cuisine

The exciting thing about Malaysia's Malay Sultanate borrows influences from different cultures and traders that come their way. Naturally, these influences trickle down to the cuisines of the individual sultanates that span from the North to the South of Malaysia. Chef Wan brings you on a tour of the Peninsular with a menu of four items with different flavors and uses of spices for an exciting and colorful iftar!

The items are only available for a limited time only from 5 March to 23 April 2023.

 

Ayam Percik Kelantan
Ayam Percik Kelantan

If you're a fan of bold and flavorful chicken dishes, you won't want to miss the Ayam Percik Kelantan! It reminded us of Ayam Lemak Cili Padi but with Ayam Percik! Hailing from the Northern state of Kelantan, this dish starts with a spiced gravy made with coconut milk, red chilies, shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, candlenut, and Fenugreek seeds. After simmering the chicken in the marinade for 30 minutes, it's oven-grilled to perfection with a smoky char and juicy interior thanks to frequent basting. Finally, the chicken is returned to the thick gravy to simmer and soak up even more flavor. On the plate, it requires little else than turmeric leaves as garnishing and welcomes all to dig right in. This dish is a must-try for anyone looking to spice up their dinner routine!

Rendang Udang Galah Perak
Rendang Udang Galah Perak

Get ready to indulge in the rich and savory flavors of Rendang Udang Galah Perak, a mouth-watering dish from the heart of Peninsular in Perak! This dish features king prawns cooked to perfection with a blend of shallots, ginger, lemongrass, turmeric leaves, dried chili, and condensed coconut milk. Once the ingredients are brought to a boil, the heat is lowered to a simmer, and the prawns are left to bubble away in the flavorful gravy until it thickens to perfection. To finish it off, the dish is served piping hot with a garnish of finely sliced turmeric leaves. We think this goes well with the sambal belacan readily available at the restaurant there. Trust us, your taste buds will thank you for this incredible flavor experience!

Kuzi Kambing Johor
Kuzi Kambing Johor

Looking to savor a delicious and aromatic dish for iftar? Then the Kuzi Kambing Johor is just what you're looking for, a mouth-watering mutton dish from the southern tip of the Peninsular in Johor! This dish boasts over 20 ingredients, including mixed spices, ghee, tomato puree, and more, which are first wok-fried to release their best fragrance. Then, the mutton and tomato puree are added and cooked over low heat until the mixture reduces to perfection. A bit of yogurt is stirred in for a touch of sweetness and sourness before it's scooped into hearty bowls for serving. Finally, the dish is topped with crispy fried shallots and kaffir lime leaves for a flavorful finish. You'll be amazed at how soft the meat is!

Laksa Johor
Laksa Johor

Get ready to slurp up a bowl of Laksa Johor, the famous spaghetti noodle dish from Johor! This hearty dish features spaghetti noodles drenched in a delicious fish-based laksa broth, carefully prepared by boiling dried prawns, coconut cream, desiccated coconut, finely minced prawns, galangal, mackerel fillet, asam gelugur, shallots, and garlic. To add a sweet crunch, a topping of julienned cucumber, Vietnamese mint, bean sprouts, onions, long beans, and fresh mint leaves is added. A spritz of kalamansi lime cuts through the richness of the coconut cream and milk, and it's served with sambal belacan on the side for an extra kick. Trust us, this dish will leave you craving more with each slurp!

Kerabu Meehoon Nyonya
Kerabu Meehoon Nyonya

If you're looking for a delicious starter to break your fast, look no further than Chef Wan's Kerabu Meehoon Nyonya. Inspired by his beloved grandmother, Chef Wan's recipe combines rice vermicelli with sambal belacan, fish sauce, fresh prawns, dried shrimp, and fresh tomatoes to create a tart and spicy salad that's bursting with flavor. A colorful mix of some minced kaffir lime leaves, fried tofu, lemongrass, shallots, and ginger flower, and top it all off with fried onions, peppermint, and Vietnamese coriander. Trust us, this dish will leave your taste buds singing!
