The Ever Irresistable Nasi Lemak

 It is heavy and cheap meal that easily can be found  during the morning for breakfast. Nasi Lemak is so tempting to the Malaysian.Yet one of the most simplest dishes of all,  also considered as the national dish.Because of the nasi lemak's versatility in being able to be served in a variety of manners, it is now served and eaten any time of the day.Traditionally, this comes as a platter of food wrapped in banana leaves, with cucumber slices, small fried anchovies , roasted peanuts, hard boiled egg, and hot spicy sauce (sambal) at its core. As a more substantial meal, nasi lemak can also come with a variety of other accompaniments such as fried chicken, sambal sotong(cuttlefish in chilli), cockles, stir , beef rendang (beef stewed in coconut milk and spices) or paru (beef lungs). Traditionally most of these accompaniments are spicy in nature.
