Instrucciones

1. For the kerabu: To make the kerisik, toast the grated coconut in a dry pan, over low heat making sure to stir constantly until it turns golden brown. Set aside to cool.

2. Blend the ginger and shallots together until fine. Add the flaked fish, blended ingredients, and kerisik in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and sugar and place in a serving dish.

3. For the sauce: Grind the chillies and shallots together until fine. Put the blended spices with coconut milk, asam keping and lemongrass in a pot and bring to a slow boil. Add salt and sugar to taste and simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Put in a serving bowl.

4. For the garnishing: Arrange all the sliced ingredients onto a serving platter. In a separate bowl put the budu and sliced bird chillies with lime wedges on the side.

5. To serve Nasi Kerabu: Put rice on a plate and pile on a handful of the kerabu, several pinches of the herb and vegetable garnishes, top with a little sauce and mix everything together with the rice. For added flavour, add a teaspoon of the budu sauce to the rice. Serve rice with accompanying side dishes such as Ayam Percik.

6. Tip
Budu can be too pungent for some people's taste. You can also substitute fish sauce with sliced chillies instead.

7. Tip
Traditional colour of the rice in Nasi Kerabu is blue! Yes, blue and this is acquired from the juice of a flower - bunga talang or blue pea flower.
