Apologies for being so unresponsive to your comments and the lack of posting. I am on the road for two weeks and will be heading back soon.
However, I wanted to share with you a new summer recipe–pandan chicken or fried chicken wrapped with screwpine leaves. Screwpine leaves or pandan leaves are commonly used in Malaysia to infuse the food or desserts with the sweet and fragrant aroma. In this pandan chicken recipe, the essence of pandan leaves lend a pleasing flavor to the chicken, especially after these pandan chicken are fried.
Pandan chicken makes a great appetizer or finger food for your party and they are so easy to make. Just get some pandan leaves, some marinated chicken, toothpicks for the wrapping and you will be in business…

Having a food blog is great, really.
Other than the dedication to constantly whipping up good food (and try not to repeat the same dish in order to generate new content!), I also learn to experiment with different cuisines and recipes that I wouldn’t have attempted otherwise. (I mean, why would I want to cook a dish when there is no real purpose of preparing it at home and that it’s easily available in the restaurants?!)
Rasa Malaysia adds colors to my life; there is the food styling, presentation, photography which I am more and more addicted to as days go by, and of course, there are just endless recipes that I can play and experiment with. Plus, my food blog makes me think harder about food, for example: how do I make use of those leftover ingredients that I have accumulated in the refrigerator, like since last December? I have become a lot more creative and innovative in the kitchen, that’s for sure. Eating better on a daily basis is just an extra perk… Click for more
What do you eat when you have your teeth pulled out? A bowl of chew-friendly Chinese porridge/congee. (I had all four of my wisdom teeth extracted last Friday and this is what I have been eating.)
For ingredients, Rasa Malaysia recommends dried oyster and chicken breast fillet. Top the porridge with fresh shredded ginger, chopped scallions, [...]
My current food crush on Japanese food continues with yakitori, or Japanese grilled chicken skewers. If you have tried yakitori before, chances are you have tasted these legendary grilled chicken meat balls.
Known as Tsukune in Japanese, I am nuts for yakitori. They are juicy, yummy, and definitely my favorite and a must-have item at yakitori [...]
(Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!)
My love affair with Szechuan food began about 2 years ago when I first visited China. Before my trip to China, the notion of trying out Szechuan food was never high on my “what-to-eat” list. Then, when I wanted to have Chinese food, I would go for Dim Sum, [...]
I confess, I once did not cook curry chicken or kari ayam well. My curry chicken was always too watery, had too much curry powder, or was too loaded with coconut milk. Despite numerous attempts and countless trials and errors, it just never tasted right — frustrating me to no end.
Argh.
I eventually gave up [...]
