3.0 out of 5 stars Authentic Malaysian for experienced cooks, November 22, 2003
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Food of Malaysia (P) (Food of the World Cookbooks) (Paperback)
This is a great book on Malaysian food. All the recipes I've tried so far turned out really well. Unfortunately only 'Halal' recipes are featured. Hence, truly original Malaysian recipes such as the 'Bah Kut Teh' and 'Pork Vindaloo' are missing because they contain pork. Was disappointed that the 'Yee Sang', an original M'sian must-have dish for the Chinese New Year, is also missing. And the 'Nasi Ayam' ('Chicken Rice') featured is not the one made popular by Hainanese migrants, but is instead the Malay equivalent. Also, note that the recipes in this book tend to be the 'gourmet' version - this means that you'll need 15 ingredients to make the same dish that your grandmother used to make using only 5 ingredients. However, the results are undeniably delicious.
