nasi lemak

Today after thinking about what to cook for lunch, I finally decided to cook nasi lemak. My version is simpler because I'm eating alone and hence I didnt prepare fried ikan bilis & peanuts.

For rice
- rice
- coconut milk
- a bit of water
- salt
- ginger slices
- pandan leaves

1. Wash rice then cook right the usual way.

For sambal
- onion (pounded)
- dried chillies ( blanched in hot water then pounded with onion)
- anchovies
- tamarind juice
- salt & sugar

1. Heat wok, add pounded ingredients
2. Add water, salt, sugar & tamarind juice. Let it simmer.
3. Add anchovies. Let the gravy thicken by letting it simmering under low heat.
4. Ready to serve

Dont forget to prepare sliced hard boil egg & cucumber slices. For a complete set, deep fry anchovies & peanuts. You can also serve it with salted fish...
