OPEN for ingredients! This is Nasi Lemak, made super pretty with all-natural butterfly blue pea food colouring. Nasi Lemak or Coconut Rice is a favourite dish here in Singapore and Malaysia and is always served with some crunchy fried dried anchovies and peanuts and a delicious, spicy sweet sambal.
Of course, the blue pea food colouring is optional - it doesn't actually add taste. Omit for an equally yummy, albeit boring :p, plate of Nasi Lemak.

Hi, thks for the receipe....Ive tried the sambal, exactly the same ingredients/steps but my chilli is very dry...even if i add more to stir fry...texture is the same....whereas yours is a layer of oil floating on top...do u have any idea where did I gone wrong? Thks

@NomadettEats 2 жыл бұрын

The simple solutions is to add more oil! If you find your sambal is drying out before it is ready, just gradually add more oil. Once the dried chilli paste cooks through and emulsifiy, that's when the "oil release" will happen and you get that layer of oil. Make sure you use low heat, and stir fry constantly.

@@NomadettEats thank u for yr reply. Another issue was....I cooked 6 cups of rice...and wanted the blue/white effect like yours by adding some blue pea water after the rice is cooked...but failed cos too much rice..😅 add too much pea water worry the rice be soggy...guess need to cook the rice with the pea water if cooking so much...right?

@NomadettEats 2 жыл бұрын

@@Hushlng haha if making that much amount it's always a gamble with consistency! but why is it fail? not enough blue? if you add the blue pea water bit by bit instead of all at one go, you will not add too much at all and it will not be soggy! but if you want to cook the rice with the blue pea liquid, that's ok too - just note you'll get all blue rice instead of the blue and white effect.

@@NomadettEatsrice texture ok just that even i added quite a fair bit of blue pea liquid...the rice still don't turn blue at all...tats y i worry if i continue to add more liquid.to the cooked rice...it will make the rice soggy...

Where to get the blue pea

@NomadettEats 2 жыл бұрын

If you are in Singapore - just go scoop wholefoods, cheap and very good. Sometimes tea sections of supermarket will have, redman baking shop also another option. Otherwise, get them online, easy to find!
