Nasi Lemak In A Hurry

Nasi Lemak In A Hurry

Jul 21, 2022 | Asian, Food-Cooking

Nasi lemak sambal.
Such a humble but vital ingredient in nasi lemak, one of my favourite dishes.

It can be made vegetarian by easily omitting the anchovies and dried shrimp.
Still very tasty.
I cooked this in under 20 mins or so as I was hungry!

Please find details of the recipe

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons of dry chili paste (suggest starting with one and taste the spice level)
  • Half teaspoon of turmeric powder
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons of assam paste (to taste)

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons of seedless Tamarind Paste

Step by Step Instructions

NON-VEGETARIAN STYLE

Blend the onions and garlic in a food processor. Wash the dry shrimp and anchovies and add to the food processor.

Add the mixture in a bowl and mix in the turmeric powder (optional, some omit this). Add the mixture to a pan with pre-heated oil and add in the chili paste. Cook on medium to high heat, keep stirring, as it will keep spluttering until the moisture evaporates. Cook until the oil comes out at the sides of the pan. Add salt and sugar and tamarind paste. Cover and increase heat to high. After a few minutes, lower the heat and add in the rough-cut onions. Taste for salt and sugar and heat, add more seasoning and spice if necessary.
