I have heard of Lenggong being a place where unique
delicious food being served but am yet to experience it, the most was ikan
pekasam (my absolute favourite, ikan pekasam over daging pekasam anytime for
me). As for ikan pekasam (nak gak mention), it must be fried with bawang and cili
api, and to be eaten with air asam and nasi panas2. Sumpah sedap giler hokkay.
Anyway, back to my unique Lenggong delicacy shall we. This time around, our lunch was at Warung Nasi Talam Ikan Bakar Sepuh in Lenggong (obviously) and I tried this 3 unique dishes :
- Ikan Bakar Sepuh (Ikan bakar disaluti air kerabu) – I was made to understand that this is a Kampung Beng delicacy. Betul ke? Can anyone share some insights please
- Sayur Kerabu (pucuk paku, taugeh [crunchy], bawang)
- Sambal kelapa eaten with ulam (pucuk putat, timun, lambuk keladi)
And I fell in love with all this 4 delicacies (kat KL mana nak cari yek?).
Since it is so hard to find them in KL, I googled and asked
around. Tadaaa…. Sharing the recipe with you guys, so if ada salah or
pernambahan/kekurangan do inform and share yah.Before we start, perhaps I should explain what is ‘kerabu’ to the non-local/Malaysian. Kerabu is usually associated with local salad, it is eaten with kerabu paste or sambal/chili paste. There’s many type of kerabus in Malaysia, some are just mix veges, some are mangoes with anchovies, and some are eaten with rice (Nasi Kerabu), so on and so forth.
