Nasi Lemak

Nasi Lemak is a type of Malay rice steamed with coconut milk and pandan leaves. Nasi means 'rice' and Lemak means 'rich'. Rich here does not refer to wealth rich, but creamy rich. The creaminess comes from the coconut milk.

Nasi Lemak is traditionally served with sambal (chilli paste), ikan bilis (anchovies), egg, and fried fish. People also serve them with rendang, sambal prawns, sambal sotong etc. Today I will share on how to steam nasi lemak, try it with the Beef Rendang, also cooked with Thermomix.
