How to make a Nasi Ulam - Rice Packed Full of Flavour

[@jedrashidul6952]

Reminds me of when I was on a vacation in Thailand. Nasi ulam with a side of crispy fried chicken topped with even crispier fried shallot = best breakfast ever. All for less than 1usd to boot 😍

[@Steve-Owens]

Indeed. 😉

[@eddiesulaiman]

Nasi ulam is basically Nasi (rice) mixed with ulam (salad/herbs). A different part of Malaysia has a different style. Not to mention different mom has their own recepies. My mom doesn't really use galangals, turmeric and ginger flower (kantan). Sometimes she even omits the coconuts. She uses mostly leafy ulam and salted fish. The result is rice with dark green colour. There is alot of ulam that can be added other than mentioned in the video: pegaga. mengkudu, ketereh (cashew shoot), serai kayu, kadok, mengkudu ulam raja, selom, sekentut, tenggek burung, putat, cekur manis, mata itik and many more.

Maybe one day I'll skip the kerisek if I am to lazy to make it.

[@ainibakat149]

I've never tried nyonya style with turmeric,galangal & belacan. Perhaps one day I'll give a try.

[@Steve-Owens]

@@ainibakat149 it's amazing.. 🤩

[@dwaynewladyka577]

The ingredients seem so unique. I have never have heard of many of them. However, they make the dish look and taste good.

[@Steve-Owens]

It was unique Dwayne and so good, I will try to modify it in time..

[@Khatulistiwan]

Malay Nasi Ulam is the best! So healthy!

[@AnjaliRajadhyaksha]

That was beautiful presentation. Steve's kitchen has made a place in the stomach as well as in the heart ! don't know, I too was emotional ! Those herbs, leaves fish are part of tropical diet. Nice video !

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks Anjali, it was a pleasure to learn this dish and to share it with you all.. Steve

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks Tammy :o)

[@theonghantan862]

Thanks for sharing..you guy are fun🥰🥰🥰

[@sambroyd693]

Wow! In today's world of fast food, flavour is compromised. When you take the time to prepare, just look what you make, healthy and full of flavour 👍🏻

[@Steve-Owens]

Too true Sam, too true :o) thanks

[@AussieAngeS]

Oh wow that looks fabulous steve. Really does look like it had so much flavour .

[@Steve-Owens]

It truly does Angie.. I love this Rice, it's a shame many of the ingredients are hard to get.. I'll have to work on that.. :o)

[@PlantVisionz]

The Rojak ginger can be grown in Brisbane seen one growing in New Farm

[@Steve-Owens]

Nice, I'll look out for them..

[@melodyk6310]

That looks awesome and looks so flavorful!!

[@grosiradu]

I enjoy your videos that have foods from other countries.

[@audreychung9430]

I must thank you I try your nasi alam it is realdy very tasty.

[@Steve-Owens]

I thank you, it is amazing..

[@shimahassan5398]

Not nasi alam but nasi Ulam

[@letseatmalaysian6378]

Interested to see the ginger flower. I have never cooked with it. To be honest I am not keen on ginger because I was fed it night and day after giving birth. It is a Chinese tradition but it put me off the strong flavour of ginger. Having said that, I do cook one dish that is full of ginger.

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks, the flower is so far from the taste of Ginger though, it is truly delicious and a but part of Nonya cooking, I miss it so much..

[@letseatmalaysian6378]

I have never seen ginger flowers in Perth, we tried to grow ginger but it just hasn't succeeded here.

[@Steve-Owens]

I have never seen it sold in Australia :( Someone is using them up, because we grow great Ginger. Maybe when I get around to QLD, i'll look out for them, they grow heaps of ginger there.. :)

[@SusansEasyRecipes]

I love Nasi. Delicious and healthy.

[@Steve-Owens]

:o) Thanks Susan

[@liongrose1173]

[@Steve-Owens]

[@redforjesus1]

[@masyuyu6878]

i really love nasi ulam

[@Steve-Owens]

Me too.. Thanks

[@Trytocookthis]

Wish I could cut like that. 1.My right arm is wrecked and 2. I can't see what the heck I'm doing up close like that. It really is beautiful.!!!!! VERY nice - going on my rice playlist xoxo PS. First I saw the pretty thumbnail, then I saw which chef's coat you had on and I instantly thought, oh it matches his top! hehe, then you said it later on when you got to the "leaves" You are such a gem for sharing this with the community.

[@Steve-Owens]

Wow, what a lovely comment. A huge thanks for you appreciation, it makes me smile.. :)

[@nassasha3992]

[@audreychung9430]

It really nice and delicious I am trying to make, Thank,

[@scottguesty]

I'm not a fan of fish, but I suspect the dish would taste wonderful with the fish omitted... Now if only I could find all those great looking ingredients. It looks so good!

[@Steve-Owens]

You could barely taste Fish Scott but it was so good, I'll have to work on a version with easier to get ingredients.. Thanks

[@scottguesty]

That's great Steve, Thanks for getting back to me, very eager to see your own version of this dish!

[@marysaradum]

@@Steve-Owens you can substitute the salted fish with fried anchovies to give more bite to the rice. Yummy too.

[@justnani5442]

@@scottguesty You can also substitute the fish to chicken floss... It taste just as great

[@AussieZach88]

[@yeelailin9467]

Steve, thanks for this wonderful recipe. Is there a way to tweak it to vegetarian ? Can I replace with Raja Ulam for the greens ?

[@MapleLemonSyrup]

Naaasi Uleammm... :)

[@lcozzarelli]

Omg I’m drooling

[@sookwilson1077]

I missed Penang So much 😪 all the Nyonya food !

[@Steve-Owens]

Me too.

[@warsitimantapgaeesswarsiti5290]

Woooooh so nice.

[@boy638]

How does it taste saltiness wise since it does not require salt

[@Steve-Owens]

There is salt in the ingredients (fish etc..), so it tastes great.

[@boy638]

are you currently in Malaysia?

[@Steve-Owens]

No I have left now.

[@grosiradu]

Will you do Chinese dishes?

[@Steve-Owens]

first

[@Steve-Owens]

Hello

[@sunshine2049]

all that build up of flavors only to be tossed cold! I thought it was going to be stir fried and served hot. the idea of cold rice doesn't seem appealing

[@Steve-Owens]

You could not be further off the Mark, if yo have had the best Fried rice of your life, then eat this, you'll never go back to boring warm fried rice.

[@shanarumugam8796]

steve owens i really love your you tube channel but wanted to comment something every important " make sure you wash your hand or use different spoon after you do food or ingredient testing. And also you don't put your hand in main bowl to scoop the foods please think about others hygiene . . Its very rude especially for people in Asia. I think people are you being nice not to tell you off in the show.

[@Steve-Owens]

That is complete and utter crap. And please don't come on my channel pretending you love it, you are NOT welcome here. I won't conform to silly germophobe ideals, it's silly attitudes like this that are fearing people into becoming weak and feeble.. If you did hit subscribe, please hit it one more time..

[@shanarumugam8796]

iff Ii like the recipe it doesn't mean I like to see your untidy behaviour .see their expression the Malaysian cook showing when U do that.i know how we care about suchrude behaviour .you won't do that .I don't need to subscribe to your show now knowing how rude you are in Manerusme as well.
