Irresistible Malaysian recipes for the American home cook, including curries, noodle bowls, stir-fries, street foods, and more
A delicious and informal mashup of Southeast Asian and European influences, Malaysian cooking is full of flavor and easy to love. Chef and author Christina Arokiasamy brings it into the American home kitchen. This cuisine borrows from the traditions of Thailand, India, China, and Portugal for dishes as varied as Chili Prawns, Salmon Tandoori, Hainanese Chicken Rice, and Grilled Lamb with Rosemary Pesto. Christina gives recipes for authentic Malaysian favorites like Beef Rendang and Char Kway Teow Noodles, while also sharing her own modern iterations, such as Wok-Fried Spaghetti with Kale. An assortment of sambals and chili sauces—simply thrown together in a blender—get you started on your way to these dishes but are so tasty and versatile you’ll find yourself using them in the rest of your everyday cooking. Vivid on-location photography takes the reader into the spice markets, coffee houses, fishing villages, and kitchen gardens that inspired each recipe.

Turmeric Fried Chicken from The Malaysian Kitchen
Serves 4
Authentic Malaysian ayam goreng, or fried chicken, eaten at least once a week at our home, is typically made with a simple combination of turmeric, ground chilies, salt, and pepper. The turmeric also enhances that appealing golden-brown color you want in perfect fried chicken.
I usually start with a whole chicken and cut it into 12 pieces, since small pieces are more flavorful than large because they get coated with more spice.
Directions
1. Put the chicken pieces in a large bowl and sprinkle with the turmeric, ground chilies, salt, and pepper. Rub the chicken thoroughly with the spices. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
2. Heat 4 inches of oil in large wok or a deep pot over medium-high heat.
3. When the oil is hot (you can test the oil with a chopstick, if the oil bubbles around the stick that means the oil is ready), add the chicken, a few pieces at a time, without overcrowding the wok. Cook until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through and golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, turning the chicken after about 5 minutes. Drain on a paper towel–lined plate or rack and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces, taking care to bring the oil back to temperature before each batch.
Serve hot, with sambal on the side if you like.
Ingredients 1 whole chicken (4 pounds), cut into 12 pieces 1½ teaspoons ground turmeric 1 teaspoon ground chilies 2 to 3 teaspoons salt ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper Canola oil for deep frying Sweet Soy and Shallot Sambal, for serving (optional)

Title: wonderful book but needs more photos
Review: Great cookbook with lots of useful details. Only downside is I was hoping for a roti canai recipe (a Malaysian stable) but itâs not in here. Can also use more photosânot every recipe has a photo (about every 3rd recipe has one).

Title: a great cookbook!
Review: I had lived in Malaysia for 20 years, and I really loved the food there. However, trying to recreate the dishes when some of the spices didn't have an English name was daunting at best. However, this cook book has made this so much easier! This is such a great cook book, I even gave one as a gift to a friend! 🙂 (I have both the print & Kindle editions!) If you want to try delicious Malaysian food, this is the book to get you started! The ingredients and methods are clear and very straight forward so that anyone can make these dishes! Now, I have success in recreating my favorites!

Title: Informative and achievable
Review: There is so much good about this book. I read twice because it presents a lot of useful information without ever being dry or boring. Then I tried a few recipes. Building the flavor based was easier than I anticipated and they make preparing the recipes easy. I recommend this book for an interesting read and even more for the recipes.

Title: The Key to Authentic SE Asian Cooking at Home
Review: This sumptuous book unlocks the many mysteries of SE Asian cooking. If you've often wondered about how to achieve the complexity of flavors that is the hallmark of this regional cooking-- savory, sweet, spicy and salty-- and "The Malaysian Kitchen" will answer all your questions. It starts with an excellent primer on individual spices: their source, uses and health benefits. But then Christina presents the reader with 150 easy-to-follow recipes that you might have though were only available in Malaysia or restaurants. I have lived in SE Asia and thought I knew the regional cooking. But I was only play acting at it until I met Christina Arokiasamy through her wonderful cookbooks. Now I prepare Malaysian Laksa and mango salad like a local.

Review: I love spicy food. This is the best cookbook I have bought in 20 years because it knows just how to tantalize my taste buds and lure me into the kitchen to test its wonderful recipes Great photos, too.The author also offers a lot of tips explaining how to use spices to create magical flavours. I have already bought two more copies for our sons and their wives (all excellent cooks). Canât recommend it highly enough. If you offered a six-star option Iâd click on it.

Review: Lack of time prevents a review. However: a few of the recipes have quickly become staples; the principles _behind_ the composition of ingredients and their preparation are included (additional information provided with particular recipes supplements an initial section), allowing the user to vary the recipes; the photography and evocative writing return me to that quarter of the globe. 🙂
