Penang's
multiple ethnicities have their roots
elsewhere in Asia,
all of them
brought their exotic mouth watering cuisine
with them. Mostly Chinese working in the tin
mines and Indians working in the rubber
estates brought along their rich culinary
heritages.
As time goes
by the immigrants cooking somehow got mixed
with a Malay (at that time) flavor giving
birth to a much more diverse cooking.

Penang Roti Canai |
Roti
Canai is a typical example of a unique local
breed with Indian influence, a kind of
bread the hawker prepares in front
of you and sometimes enhance the
process by some acrobatic
performance when the dough is being
flung around.
Other types of Malaysian or Penang |

foods
which have its origin
in India are the tasty ‘mee Mamak’ and ‘rojak Mamak’. The
word mamak means uncle in Tamil,
the Indian Muslim community locally are
referred to as mamak.
The ‘mee Mamak’ is different from other
noodles it has thick spicy flavor, while the
‘rojak Mamak’ a form of salad with the
gravy made of finely pounded chilies
surely will satisfied most
vegetarian, be careful, the chili
might let you feel like a
dragon and breath fire.
The curries served in ‘mamak’ restaurants
are definitely Indian but

yet different then those found in
India.
To top
it all these delectable dishes are eaten
with ‘the tarik’ tea with milk that’s hard
to make, literally we need to pour the tea
between two big glasses or mugs and
increasing the heights by pulling the
pouring glass or mug higher and higher to
achieve that distinctive foamy rich flavors
and also to cool it.
All these Malaysian
Indian cooking are not found in India itself
simply because the original recipes have
been Malaysianize, improvised using locally
available ingredients which is much cheaper
and tastier.
But
if you like to eat the pure Indian
food without influence from
anywhere, no problem just go to a
Indian
restaurant in Penang, Kuala Lumpur
and elsewhere in Malysia, you wont
regret. |

couldn't find the right ingredients for
their original recipes from China they
replaced them it with sources commonly found
in Malaysia like the ‘buah keluak’ and ‘kayu
manis’. |
