Sarawak Laksa with Chilli Sambal - BBE 05/22
Sarawak Laksa is a dish rarely found outside of Malaysia. The laksa paste that makes up the base of the soup is produced and sold by only a handful of families in Sarawak, and they guard their individual recipes very closely! The paste contains nearly 20 different ingredients combined to make a rich, spicy broth - thankfully most of these are spices, and once you’ve got that sorted it isn’t hard to make at all! Ladled over noodles, beansprouts, chicken, prawns and omelette and - with some lime and spicy chilli sambal on the side - it’s a deliciously satisfying meal in a bowl.

Deliciously spicy authentic Sarawak. However preparation time may be more than 50 mins. Nevertheless worth it.
Our own version we all loved this even if the Sambal was a little hot #fantatic taste
Brilliant work! This looks like a great, hearty dish - the perfect thing to warm you up on a winter evening (a few drops of the Sambal will do that!)
This recipe was really fantastic! It tasted just like the laksa I know and love (and which I’m super happy to be able to cook myself now!), but then the chilli sambal adds a great kick to it. I would absolutely make this again!
Brilliant work, Jared - this looks amazing in your gorgeous patterned bowls! We're so glad it hear that it lived up to the Laksa you're familiar with, and that you're now able to recreate it yourself - we're sure you'll make it time and time again!
Yet another delicious meal. Great flavour. We really love to taste parts of the world we may never visit. Prep time really must be a typo error, it takes a lot longer.
We're so glad to hear how much you loved this meal, and thanks for the feedback regarding the prep time, too - we'll take another look at this!
This was absolutely amazing loved the flavours the omelette on the top was a great addition and there were clean bowls all round. This brought back memories of the flavours when we visited Borneo and saw the orangutans. Another great easy kit.
This looks delicious, great job! We're so glad to hear how much you enjoyed it, and that it brought back happy memories of what sounds like an amazing trip to Borneo!
