Nasi Lemak Wild Boar (Kuchai Lama Food Court)

Kuchai Lama’s food court buzzes with hawker fare, and one of the more popular stalls here cooks up a Nasi Lemak Wild Boar (from RM8). The tender wild boar pieces are slicked in a thick, vinegary curry that likens vindaloo. The heat comes slow but it catches up with you, so turn to your generous bed of fragrant rice to help tone it down.

Spicy curry coats tender pieces of wild boar, and the curry itself reminds me so much of my grandma’s – tangy, rich and vinegary. Very generous serving of the meat as well considering how much the dish is!
