CURRY MEE , ( hot/spicy noodles ) KL/PJ

A mouthful of c o l o u r s.

A close cousin of Penang's most sexy noodle Xport Assam Laksa & de other bomb Prawn Mee making up the paradise island's irrepressible trio. Invariably inseparable they are at your service in most hawker centres and Chinese coffee shops across the whole country.

Curry Mee's distinctive original recipe is unclear and its current form comes in many versions, flavours and colours. Simply it is noodles in a combination of thick/light coconut flavoured hot & spicy curry gravy, orange in colour & served in a bowl + de one-half fresh lime sitting on turbocharged chillis.

The popular ones have chicken/pork meats( bony or shredded), pork skin, prawns, cockles, even fish cakes/balls with trademark fried bean curds, and assorted vegetables like beansprouts, long beans, mint leaves etc.

Listed below are some standout stalls and you should try them each in turn ( but never one after another !) to appreciate their unique flavours. Then choose your own…

SAMBAL... is perhaps the most popular and famous of Malay Cuisine. Some say it is Malaysia's national dish. ( ..........maybe )

Its pungently fragrant but irresitable mix of coconut milk-pandan leaf- ginger- salt enhanced RICE with its top-secret-recipe of fermented-shrimp-onion-chilli based 'SAMBAL' pastes and rendangs ( chilli/curry pastes ) goodies of mainly cuttlefish and meats come in all shapes and sizes across de backStreets pf Kota Baru, the beaches of Pangkor, the foothills of lovely Penang, the Chinese kopitiams of Muar, the fishing trails along Lake Kenyir, the 5 star buffet spread of Seri Melayu......and Hongky Tongky Chan Char Tengs of Shopping Malls.

Some addicts ( and I have seen too many !) insist on gobbling it whole only if…
