The Pucuk Paku Goreng Tahi Minyak (Wild Fern With Burnt Desiccated Coconut), consisting of wild fern stir-fried with chilli, caramelised coconut and shrimp. The Malay term ‘tahi minyak’ refers to the leftover from the deep frying of desiccated coconut, leaving a burnt but full of umami flavoured ingredient which only a spoonful is drizzled over the dish.

The fern itself was young, nimble and curly, and because of its age, crispy and not woody. This very simple dish is packed with flavour from the caramelised coconut, and a touch of sweetness and texture from the springy prawns. A definite must try.
