Roti Canai for breakfast, Nasi Ayam Pedas for lunch… | appetizing ...

or: tasty Malaysia.

I got up quite early and went to Cindarella's place, but it was closed. So, I had to find an alternative breakfast and I just wandered around. I went to a restaurant which was quite busy and I tried Roti Canai for the first time.

It is a kind of pancake, mine was filled with an egg, and it is served with a curry sauce. You just pull the pancake apart and dip it into the sauce. It is so wonderful, delicious. It is quite greasy, though.

It is really amazing to watch the guy how he makes the rotis, the way he stretches the dough so that it gets very thin and large, how he opens an egg, how he pours the oil over the roti.
It is a nice relaxing place. I think I will come here more often. They have various kinds of dishes, among them Nasi Lemak, which I have to try soon.

I think I will stay here in Melaka for a while. It is a lovely little town. At the weekend it is quite busy with tourists, but I can imagine that it is calmer during the weekdays.

When I left the restaurant it started to rain. I saw a shopping mall and went inside.
To be true I spent quite a long time in that mall. I sat down in a café, read a lot about Malaysia, thought about where to go next. I was pretty lazy. I thought about how to improve my blood sugar values again, thought about all the things I want to do right now and in the future. And all the other more or less important things that bother me right now.

For lunch I went to a small place with a buffet. I had chicken in a spicy sauce with fried egg and baked eggplant. It was delicious. Yummy.

The first days I didn't really like the food I had here, because they were so sweet. They add a lot of sugar, or prepare the dishes with Gula Melaka, red palm sugar. In Indonesia it is called Gula Merah, red sugar.

I also made my second durian experience today. I had durian puffs. They were really tasty. Actually I love the taste when it us not too intense. The puffs are filled with a durian custard. They were cold and not too sweet, kind of refreshing.

I enjoyed this day, it really felt like a saturday. I bought quite a lot, something what I do quite seldomly. I want to throw away some things, because after four month many clothes do not look very nice anymore, like worn-out. But I didn't really want to buy things in the expensive countries. So, this was a good opportunity.
When I came home it was late afternoon and the owner of my guesthouse invited all his western guests to bring us to a place where we could see the sunset. He drove us there and when we got off he said he would pick us up in one hour. We were a bit surprised, left alone almost in the middle of nowhere, but there was a mosque which was illuminated and so I took a lot of fotos while it got darker and darker.
I talked to an Argentinian guy who stays at my guesthouse as well.
I enjoyed it pretty much.

Back in the guesthouse I tried to bring some order into all my stuff. I through away some things to make space in my backpack for my new clothes. Still I don't know what to do with my winter clothes. I love my blue coat, but it takes a lot of space. But I think I will carry it with me the next two months.

Walaupun dimakan ketika sejuk, namun dapat dirasakan inilah nasi ayam yang benar benar memenuhi selera saya. Memang sangat sangat sedap. Hmm harganya pun memang berpadanan. Punya teringin nak makan, sampai tak sempat nak dipanaskan dalam microvave. Mana tak sedapnya, nasi ayam resepi Chef di hotel terkemuka. Memasak nasi ayam ni bukan susah, semua orang pun pandai memasak nasi ayam. Namun sedikit tips dan kelainan dalam proses penyediaan dapat menghasilkan nasi ayam yang menpunyai rasa yang berbeza dan pastinya lebih sedap.

Saya memang bertekad untuk mendapatkan resepi nasi ayam yang sangat sedap ini. Banyak kali percubaan dibuat sehingga akhirnya saya dapat bercakap sendiri dengan Chef yang menyediakan nasi ayam. Sungguh seronok. Berdasarkan perbualan telefon, saya membuat catatan dan kemudian mengolahnya supaya menjadi rujukan yang mudah. Saya memang bercadang untuk berkongsi resepinya di sini jika ianya diizinkan oleh tuanpunya resepi supaya dapat dijadikan rujukan anak anak saya di masa akan datang. Jadi buat masa sekarang, hanya layan gambar sahaja dulu ya.

Selepas sehari makan pun, masih teringat ingat keenakan nasi ayam ini. Aduhaai ianya bukan setiap hari menu yang boleh dibeli di cafetaria. Jadi memang kena sabar dan tunggu bila lagi menu nasi ayam akan dijual. Apa apa pun, yang pasti resepi ini akan menjadi "a Keeper Recipe" untuk nasi ayam keluarga saya.
