[farelirwan]

[calori2006]

i knew there's something missing. Is that what you call the paste? Belacan? does it need sambal? i just came home from KL and my first encounter with nasi lemak was love at first sight err.. taste. now I miss it badly. i wish i had taken home some of that belacan. i wasn't sure what that paste was I failed to ask the locals.

i guess belacan (dried prawn paste) was not available in hawaii thats why i didnt see you include it.

[amuni05]

WOW looks great!!! ive tried making my own blachan but doesnt taste the one made in singapore but im gonna try to make your way.

most of the blachan made are with lime...have you tried using lime?

[brieonna5]

how long does the pepper sauce last, do you store it in the fridge? the dish looks simple and delicious....

[crosswalk12]

[GetDamage]

[cassheng]

[roycie83]

Thank you for the positive feedback.

[TheDarlingharbour]

ayoyoooo...ikan bilis tak cuci dengan air dulu ke....rendamlah 1-2 minit ke...ayoyo....that bilis fish may from dirty place or whatever, and the rice also...i think the rice he washed already.

but please keep clean and safe....

[roycie83]

The cleaning of food ingredients have all taken place before the video was shot.

All cooking instructions video posted do not include cleaning shots as most cooking show, in order to save time, especially with YouTube only allocating 10 minutes per video.

Thank You for checking and for viewing the video..

[HimitsuDolls84]

@TheDarlingharbour i'm totally agree with u. As a chef he should be know how to keep clean when cooking something.

btw..i think he should cut those dried chili first b4 boiled it. My mom always scold my dad if she found out he didn't cut the dried chili first b4 boil in the pot...lol

Wouldn't it be better if it was served with fried chicken or mackeral instead of more achovies on the side. Also some fried nuts would be sufficient. Anyway ur nasi lemak looks good.

[tonynaso]

a dash of lime juice and some extract water from tamarind paste would enhance the sambal as well. Some lemon grass initially with the blended items earlier. What about the pandan leaves and the baby ginger in the cooked rice. Good effort Mr. Felix.

[ms21020]

Do you know how to make Manapuas?

[flea826]

i haven't got the time to learn that yet, the only island food i know how to cook is the luau pig and some other samoan dishes and of course the musubi

[ms21020]

Is it hot?

[Doncons]

yup ms21020,it's hot because of chilies

[pinky9ss501]

hi felix...im appreciate ur effort..nice trying..

im from malaysia and i know very well of making nasi lemak....

it more good if u take a lil bit of 'belacan' in ur sambal..the taste is really good...but i know u cannot get there in hawai right...

however ur nasi lemak look good!!

[manohasan]

[gohrse]
