once a year treat

While on our way home yesterday, we saw a stall selling Lemang ( a traditional Malay food made of glutinous rice and coconut milk, cooked in a hollowed bamboo stick, lined with banana leaf to prevent the rice from sticking to the bamboo) by the road side.  We decided to buy some, together with Rendang (curry) Beef and Rendang Chicken.   It cost RM10 for one a large bamboo stick and RM10 for each of the rendang (not cheap eh?)

Mmmm….it was Lemanglicious eventhough some part of the lemang was overcooked a little.  It’s fattening too but what the heck 🙂

A close up of my favourite, Rendang Chicken. It was really good.  Have you eaten any Lemang this year?

    Where to get it? I wanted to get some during the Fasting month at those Ramandan Bazaar..and of course I never made it. U think at the malls we can get them?

    i think you can’t get them anymore now. i saw some at the ramadhan bazaar. maybe you have to wait till hari raya haji 🙂

    WOW, RM10 for a bamboo of lemang is very expensive. Where did you buy it?

  6. ChloeMummy says:

    It’s been quite some time since I last ate this. RM10 is still ok I guess. Saw these in Jusco… they are selling the lemang at RM13/batang.

    It certainly not cheap, but it looks sinfully delicious(tht would worth the price u paid), lol!

    Reline the mould with choc on the sides: I poured in a spoonful of melted chocolate, swirl and rotate the mould, then use a toothpick lightly dip in the extra chocolate and coat the side. Hope I answered your question.^^

    I haven’t had any yet. Normally the roadside lemang doesn’t come with curry here. They purely sell lemang, hence I don’t buy. Now thick-face requesting Malay colleagues for open house, muahahaha!
