Q: Malaysian recipes …simple and easy please!?
I have a new job as a nanny to a 2year old Malaysian little boy. Who hasn’t long lived in the UK.

I was wondering if anyone has any very simple and easy Malaysian recipes for me please?

A: Fry off some rice in butter in a wok till coated, add some cooked chicken in small cubes and a cup of frozen peas, pour in some good chicken stock and simmer till rice & peas are cooked . The whole thing takes 15 to 20 minutes and is healthy & tasty. My version of Nasi Goring. I first tasted this in Malaysia, & have made it regular ever since.

Q: Hi wanted recipes for best curries of world ! Indian,Malaysian,Pakistani ,etc?
or a good site which has recipes ?

A: absolutely adore curry, the only thing better is beef rendang. So here’s how we make curry in CURRY Country (Malaysia).

Kari Daging (Beef Curry)
Ingredients:
2 medium sized potatoes
2 cups water
5 shallots, or 1 onion
5 cloves garlic
3/4 inch fresh ginger
3 tbsps. Meat curry powder
4 tbsps. Oil
2 inch cinnamon stick
4 cardamom pods
2 whole star anise
6 cloves
1 sprig curry leaves
1 lb. Lean topside beef, cut in 1/2-inch slices about 1 1/4 inch square
2 lg tomatoes, cut in wedges
1 cup coconut milk
salt to taste

Directions:
Peel potatoes and cut into 3/4 inch chunks. Place in a small pan, cover with water and cook until just tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain saving cooking water. Make a curry paste by combining curry powder with 1/3 cup of reserved water in small bowl. Keep remaining water.
While potatoes are cooking, blend shallots (or onion), garlic and ginger to a smooth paste in blender, adding a little of the oil if required to keep the blades turning.
Heat oil in a medium pan. Add cinnamon, cardamom, star anise, cloves and curry leaves and stir fry over low heat, 1 minute. Add shallots, garlic and ginger paste and cook over low heat for 3 minutes. Add curry paste and cook, stirring frequently until dry, about 3 minutes.
Add beef and saute over low heat for 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and saute additional 10 minutes, scraping up any spice paste stuck to the bottom of the pan as tomatoes soften.
Add 1 cup of the reserved potato water. Bring to the boil, cover, then simmer until beef is tender, about 45 minutes, adding more water if required.
Add potatoes and coconut milk and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Seasson to taste with salt and serve with steamed rice.

Q: can someone give me some recipes of Malaysian cuisine? and how to make shrimp paste?

A: Nobody makes their own shrimp paste (belachan), it’s a long & tedious process. I think it’s pronounced “blan-chen”.

If you live in the US, it’s difficult to find authentic Malay shrimp paste unless you live in a large city with a large Asian population (I get mine from a delicious Malay restaurant called Layang Layang in the Bay area).

If you have an Asian grocery store, they will carry the Thai shrimp paste brands (Pantainorasingh and Tra Chang). My Malay friends only prefer the Malay version but I think the Thai version makes a great substitute if you dont have access to true Malay belachan.

I love Malay food, it’s a blend of Chinese, Indian, Nyonya….

This is a great website:

Q: Authentic Malaysian Satay Recipe?
I was born in Malaysia and immigrated to US. When I think of Malaysian food, I think of Malaysian Satay (both Chicken and Beef). I am hoping that all ingredients on that recipe can be easily found in US grocery store. Do you have the authentic satay recipe? Please share.

A: Ingredients:

1 lb. meat- chicken, beef or pork
2 cloves of garlic
1 cup shallots
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4 inch piece turmeric root
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 tablespoon cooking oil
about 35 bamboo sticks
Method:

Cut meat into small thin pieces.

Grind together until very fine: shallots, garlic, coriander seeds, cumin seeds & turmeric.

Combine ground spices with salt & sugar.

Season meat with the ground spices and let marinate.

When you are ready to grill soak the bamboo sticks in water so they won’t burn, skewer the meat with the sticks, don’t overcrowd.

Grill satay sticks over a charcoal fire (barbecue grill), basting occasionally with evaporated milk combined with oil. Or, for the brush, use the head of lemon grass, smash and flatten to resemble a brush.

PEANUT SAUCE

Ingredients:

8 dried chillies (soaked until soft). Remove the seeds if you do not like it too hot.
2 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup shallots
4 candle-nuts or substitute with macadamia nuts.
1/4 cup cooking oil
1 cup peanuts (finely ground)
1/4 cup thin tamarind juice ( get the tamarind paste, add a little warm water and squeeze the juice, strain)
1/4 cup evaporated milk diluted with 1 cup water.
1 tablespoon sugar
salt to taste
Method:

Grind together until very fine: chillies, garlic, shallots & candle-nuts.

In a wok or saucepan, fry ground ingredients in hot oil for 5 minutes.

Stir in ground peanuts and tamarind juice.

Bring to the boil.

Add diluted milk and salt to taste and bring to the boil again.

Serve with satay.

I’m not sure if this as authentic as what you remember, but a Malaysian couple from Penang swears that it’s very close, considering a couple of the ingredients are Americanized.

Q: Recipe for Malaysian or Indonesian beef rendang?
There are enough recipes online but I am looking for an authentic family recipe for this amazing beef preperation. Thanks in advance for sharing it with me.

A: Beef rendang recipe is similar to indian beef curry but is made in indonesia , malaysia , and Asian countries with thier own spices varying the taste a bit.

Ingredients

1 kg rump steak
2 onions, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tbsp fresh ginger, chopped
4 small red chillies, chopped
1/2 cup water
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tbsp tamarind sauce
1 tsp ground turmeric
10 curry leaves
1 lemon grass, 10 cm stem
4 cup coconut milk

Preparation

1. Remove fat and sinew from steak, cut meat into 3 cm cubes, place in
bowl.

2. In food processor, combine onions, garlic, ginger, chillies
and water, blend until smooth. Add the mixture to steak.

3. Add
coriander, tamarind sauce, turmeric, curry leaves and lemon grass,
stir until combined. Stir in coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce
heat to medium, simmer, uncovered for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to very low, simmer for 30 minutes, stirring frequently
until the meat is very tender and liquid has been absorbed. Remove
lemon grass before serving. NOTE: It is necessary to stir the Beef
Rendang often during the last 30 minutes of cooking to prevent
coconut milk from separating and to avoid sticking. This distinctive
and delicious curry is cooked very slowly for a long time, until the
meat is very succulent and all the coconut milk has been absorbed. A
close friend of mine, Winnie Quek, and her husband own a fine
Singaporean Restaurant here in Calgary. While her recipe for Beef
Rendang remains a closely guarded secret, this one comes very close.
Winnie has suggested holding back 2 cups of coconut milk until the
last 30 minutes of cooking, then slowly adding it then, as you
continue to simmer and stir until all the liquid has been absorbed.
Winnie says that this will stop the coconut milk from separating and
tasting “oily”. Source: Indonesian Cooking

Q: Do you know any Malaysian or Indonesian vegan recipes?

A: i found the link for gado-gado recipe, good luck! gado-gado is an indonesian dish made of several kinds of vegetable, boiled egg, prawn crackers, and peanut gravy (for dressing)

http://www. asianonline recipes.com/ spicy_salad/gado_gado.php

(note: in the recipe, there are some non-vegetarian ingredients such as egg, shrimp paste, and prawn crackers, u can just omit them without making significant difference with the taste, u also can change the prawn cracker with vegetable-based crackers such as onion cracker (or “kerupuk bawang” in indonesian, but never omit the chilies even if u dont like spicy food, just use small amount of it ;) )
