Coconut rice, sambal chilli, anchovies are the key ingredients in a good plate of nasi lemak. This simple everyday meal is loved by many Singaporeans. It started off as a farmer’s meal but now, there are so many creative ingredients such as lobster and big fried sotong being added into our nasi lemak.
But sometimes, we just need a simple and humble plate of nasi lemak.
A reader recommended Pak Mandor, a 100% Muslim-owned coffeeshop stall in Yishun that sells very good nasi lemak. This is one of the nasi lemak stalls that hasn’t received wide coverage online, but is very well known by those living in the area.
Just look at that plate of fluffy nasi lemak that rocks an appealing shade of green. Each mouthful carries a beautiful fragrance of coconut and pandan. For $3, you will get a chicken wing, kuning fish, egg omelette, anchovies, cucumber, peanuts and sambal chilli.
The flesh from the fried kuning was firm, and the chicken wing was crispy. I liked that the ikan bilis was not too oily. The star was their homemade sambal chilli which was sweet and spicy, just the way I like it. If you’ll like more chilli, just ask for more, and you’ll be given! This is really Yishun’s little Halal gem!
