SPOONFUL - A Tale of Two Nasis: Nasi Lemak and Nasi Goreng

Nasi Goreng and Nasi Lemak are probably the most famous of all Malay Food. I've eaten at least a dozen Nasi Gorengs and Nasi Lemaks since I've been here in Kuala Lumpur.

Nasi Goreng is Malaysian Fried rice. Usually seasoned with soy sauce, sesame oil, cabbage, carrots and onions. Nasi Goreng is usually topped with fried chicken.

Nasi Lemak is rice cooked in coconut milk and is usually served with chicken or beef rendang with sides of cucumbers, ikan bilis, sambal sauce and hard boiled egg.

These two are top of the must-try food here in Malaysia. I have yet to find the best Nasi Goreng and Nasi Lemak here but I'm sure that I'd be able to find it here
