Yes, it is a sinful dish but everyone who has tried Nasi Lemak would agree the dish is simply\u00a0sinfully good!<\/p>\n<p>Typically taken as the first meal of the day, Asians love to have Nasi Lemak for dinner too. Either way, the basic must-haves in Nasi Lemak are the aromatic coconut-and-pandan-infused Nasi and its spicy-yet-sweet <em>sambal tumis<\/em>. If both are done right, the meal would be satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>Sources say that the invention of Nasi Lemak was born from the straits of the Malay community. They, who lived by the seaside, had all the essential ingredients within reach in their homes. Coconut, kangkong, rice, <em>ikan bilis<\/em> (anchovies) and other types of fishes including <em>ikan selar kuning<\/em> (yellowstripe scad), <em>ikan tamban<\/em> (Sardinella) and <em>ikan benggol<\/em> were easily sourced from the sea and farm. Villagers from\u00a0the community who were rice farmers, fishermen and vegetable sellers, readily bought and sold these commodities as their livelihood. It was not long before the simplest version of Nasi Lemak was made.<\/p>\n<p>Steamed rice with coconut milk cooked over a hot charcoal fire was freshly made\u00a0every day by homemakers who learnt the trade by hard. It is often that the homemakers themselves\u00a0or their children who would set foot on\u00a0the streets to lure patrons with the slightest whiff of their delicious Nasi Lemak. Basically, it was a first-come-first-serve basis; whoever who came too late would miss it!<\/p>\n<p>Ask any old folks, one packet of Nasi Lemak comprised only of rice, sambal and ikan bilis. These were carefully and skillfully wrapped in pandan leaves and newspaper. For SGD 10 cents, the meal was simple-yet-tasty; worth every mouthful of Nasi Lemak. A small slice of hard-boiled egg or scrambled egg the portion of a tiny\u00a0triangle, along with fish like <em>ikan tamban<\/em>, <em>ikan selar kuning<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0<em>ikan benggol<\/em>\u00a0were later introduced to complete the meal.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11554\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11554\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium_large wp-image-11554\" src=\"https:\/\/halalke.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/KgKayuAraNasiLemak-768x576.png\" alt=\"The earliest version of Nasi Lemak in Singapore looks similar to the one sold at Kampung Kayu Ara Nasi Lemak at Petaling Jaya.
