The preparation...
the cooking process begin whereby rice is soaked in coconut cream and then the mixture steamed. Sometimes knotted screwpine (pandan) leaves are thrown into the rice while steaming to give it more fragrance. Spices such as ginger and occasionally herbs like lemon grass may be added for additional fragrance.
A completed dish traditionnally come as a platter of food wrapped in banana leaf, with cucumber slices, small dried anchovies (ikan bilis), roasted peanuts, hard boiled egg, and hot spicy sauce (sambal) at its core.

Roti Canai and The Tarik...
Another favorite conventional cuisine that's running in our blood...
For centuries this has been our own locality originated from southern Asia...
Cultivated in many varieties such as roti bawang, roti telur, roti sardin and others
similar influences suchlike roti nan, kebab, capati and roti prata...
Roti canai is circular and flat. There are two ways to make roti canai that is either to twirl it until the dough becomes a very thin sheet and then folded into a circular shape or to spread out the dough as thinly as possible before being folded. Then the folded dough is grilled with oil. The first method is more popular and faster than the second.
dip it in assortments of various savvies such as dal, kari ayam, kari ikan
and kari daging or pour it off into your dishes in one go...
Teh tarik is a herb tea mixed with condensed milk and does not stirred but striking it
between two containers until it bubbly foaming and ready to serve...
