In this morning’s Cookalong Jackie tested out a different type of fish for the paste to stuff her Yong Tau Fu. While she was frying and tasting the Yue Bang paste, I tried making Nasi Minyak — which she cooked during last week’s Cookalong. I like to try the dishes she teaches as soon as I can, while the tutorials are still fresh in my head.
We ate the Nasi Minyak with the vegetable curry I made a couple of days ago. The rice paired well with the curry, but the rice itself wasn’t as flavoursome as I had hoped despite even with all the spices. I can almost hear Jackie whispering in my ear to add more chicken powder 🤭. And yes, I definitely will next time I make this rice.
