Nasi Lemak is the Malaysian national dish. Every family has a version of it. Make it healthier using Ayam Brandā¢ Tuna for an omega-3 packed sambal. Hereās how:
Peratal or dry Indian curry has a thick, concentrated gravy as no liquid is added during the cooking process. It is a favorite in most Indian households, and at banana leaf restaurants too. Increase your omega-3 intake with this extra-spicy, super easy saba peratal.

Add one tablespoon of this delicious filling in the middle of the wonton skin ā seal with a little water. Gently add the wontons into hot water, stir and fish them out when they float to the surface.
Ā Serve tuna wonton with a simple soup and noodles. To elevate the dish, add on steamed pak choy and a dash of onion oil or garlic oil.
Ubi rebus or boiled tapioca is a favorite across the board especially for those of us who grew up in kampung. While it can be a served as a sweet dessert, the kick to this hearty dish is the accompanying savoury sambal. Make your nostalgic Malaysian favorite healthier with omega-3 rich Ayam Brandā¢ Chilli Tuna.
Wash and peel the tapioca. Cut it into 5 centimeter pieces.Ā In a pot, boil salted water. Add the tapioca and boil for 30 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
