A hearty dish that is commonly served in Malay households that never fails to impress. This Malay Yellow coconut curry is rich in flavour with its turmeric, lemongrass base of spice that tantalises the tastebuds.
Usually served with chicken or fish but you can add your protein of choice. If you are going with a meat-less option we recommend tofu and a medley of veggies.
