Elk backstrap is certainly a very exotic ingredient that I wouldn’t know how to prepare, and that’s why Matt of Wrightfood and I thought it would make a wonderful guest post on Rasa Malaysia.

Since my trip to Jamaice 5 years ago, I have fallen in love with Jamaican jerk chicken–the food that I ate in Jamaica every day during that vacation. So, as soon as I met up with Cynthia of Tastes Like Home in Barbados during my recent cruise vacation, I told her to take me to [...]
