Malaysian Sambal

Malaysian Sambal is used both as an accompaniment to certain dishes and as a base for many Malaysian curries or stir-fries. In many Malaysian dishes such as Nasi Goreng, Nasi Lemak and Soup noodles, this hot chilli paste adds a bitter sweet spice to the dish which complements the great variety of textures and tastes on a Malaysian dinner plate.
