Cook your way through these iconic dishes at home and discover the secrets, flavours and vibrancy of Malaysian food and its neighbouring influences.

Industry Reviews

‘I would actually have been happy if this cookbook only included the secrets to their roti canai, dal and kangkung belacan. But the book goes far beyond those dishes, and I want to dive face first into every recipe.’
