Breakfast at Iman's

Iman's mother invited us over to their home for breakfast. So after checking out from New Pacific Hotel we drove over to their house along Jalan Telipot. It's an orange wooden house with lighter orange and lilac interiors. It's cute! Comey lotey as Kelantanese say it.



We had Kelantanese breakfast delicacy, Nasi Kerabu which literally means Salad Rice. Steamed rice is dyed blue with a kind of flower. Then served with sambal tumis kelapa which is ground chili paste with grated coconut and fish. Sprinkled with generous helpings of thinly sliced ulam-ulam or fresh local herbs, leaves and vegetables like pegaga leaves, bunga kantan and long beans. Hmmmm...crunchy!



With budu (shrimp sauce) taugeh (bean sprouts), grated coconut and keropok (fried fish crackers), it's finger licking good. I was literally licking my fingers hehehe...



I like the solok lada which is green chillies stuffed with a fish paste.



Usually you eat it with kari ikan tongkol (tuna fish curry) or with other curries, but Iman served the rice with broiled beef instead. That tasted even better.
