The Cuisine of Kedah

 Now our next cuisine is in Kedah.

Kedah cuisine is not only unique as it could appeal to the whole wide range of food lovers but they are prepared fast enough to whet the appetite of everyone. Being a multi-ethnic community state, there is a wide range of Malay, Chinese, Indian and Thai cuisine to choose from.

Specially prepared authentic dishes comprising a combination of spices, herbs and market fresh ingredients will tempt any visitor to the state. Rice is the staple food of Kedahans. Traditional local dishes which are also favourites among visitors are “gulai nangka” (a jack fruit curry), “sayur keladi” and “pekasam”. “Nasi ulam” is another local food which is equally tantalising. This authentic dish is prepared by blending rice with varied fresh veggies and spices. Among the locals, nasi ulam is a must on the menu particularly during the fasting month of Ramadhan.
