As a chinese, when i said i like solok lada and bawang putih jeruk (pickled garlic best with ayam percik) to my malay friends, they will get shocked how i know that HAHAHA… i was once in kelantan 4 or 5 years back, and that is the first time i had them… since then in every Ramadhan Bazaar, i must have 2-3 solok lada with a single pack of nasi kerabu😂
@@Hellibra texture and tatse-wise crunchy like pickled underripe papaya, but with pungency of garlic. Depends on the garlic bulb used... the smaller probably means younger hence less garlicky. As much as I love it, I rarely ate it other than with nasi kerabu.
Pickled garlic is the best! You'd think eating whole bulb of garlic would have a very intense garlic flavour but it's not. It's slightly sweet, savoury and just a tinge of garlic taste. It's like magic, doesn't taste like what you'd expect a pickled garlic would taste.
Kelantan are known for their food's heaven... Even most restaurants outside of Kelantan itself are owned by Kelantan peoples. The Kelantan peoples really know how to cook good dishes.
@@Zeusssify mmgler ada yg pkai haiyaa. Tapi ikut resepi Melayu yg ori x perlu pon msg. Xyah masuk dapur pon dh tahu kedai mana yg pakai msg kedai mana yang tidak.
I disagree. A lot of place practice this, even in fastfood joints. typically Malay/Indian joints, you see people stack dishes after eating, at the very least. Some Indonesian reaction channels also highlight this culture in Malaysia.
Hampir 4 tahun kerja di kelantan. Memang kejutan makanan sampai di sana. Sebab di Sarawak memang tiada. Makanan kegemaran saya Nasi kerabu daging bakar, Laici Kang, Nasi air, Mi celop
I'm a Malaysian working in Sgpore & watching I chang videos always makes me drool.. no matter how good Sgpore is the food is like day & night compared to homeland..I'm going back to Mlysia next month & will definitely visit this place..Thank u I chang ♥️♥️
Dont worry ichang and jimmy , most malaysian doesnt even know most of the food that you were eating in your video . but because of both of u , most of us realize that we too must explore more place in malaysia to try the amazing food that you tried .. thank you for another great video 😁 and btw , dont regret about your cooking video , all your cooking video is awesome 👌
I cang sepatutnya awak berdua pilih lauk samada ayam bakar atau kambing bakar. Dan jimmy pula pilih yg lain kemudian awak bertukar2 hidangan baru awak bolih tahu perbezaan rasa hidangan itu. tahniah awak bolih mkn hidangan nasi kerabu. kenapa tk buat vidio. memaasak lagi Dan kenapa awak tk pergi melawat Che nom Dan buat vidio bersama.
They can do whatever they want in Malaysia. It seems like they love to walk around, explore things and foods by themselves, they are free to decide without strangers to walk with. So why not we just let them be.
Jimmy. Most Malay food shops usually have Plain water but it is self service. You have to find the "Layan Diri"= self service, you will see a water dispenser with cups laying around. or those automatic water filter dispenser. If you dont see it around, please Order "Ais Kosong" = ice water. "air suam" = warm water. "Air" or "Minum" usually means Drinks in restaurants, it is not plain water. If you keep saying you want "air" in the restaurants... usually it gets you to nowhere LOL. KL also have this self service water stations, not many but its mostly in smaller, single owner business.
My Deepest Condolences To Japanese People For Losing Longest Serving Prime Minister . Mr Shinzo Abe Is Best Friend Of Malaysia , He Visit Malaysia Multiple Time Including 3 Month Ago For The Last Time . Rest In Peace Mr Shinzo Abe . 🇲🇾 ♡ 🇯🇵
As a Chinese Sabahan my wish is to visit kelantan to eat nice nasi kerabu, sambal and ayam goreng berempah. T.T mesti sangat best. I used to eat at one place (cafeteria) which the building is next to segi subang college and it was really nice.
Alhamdulillah, so nice both of you cleaning the table after eating. That's a very good manner to practice wherever you are. Terima kasih iChang and Jimmie go to my born state. 🙇🙏 Glad both of you enjoyed it so much. 💪 Suddenly I crave for nasi kerabu. 😂
omg guys..please state early that both of you were japanese to the staff..otherwise they would just assume you were kelantanese chinese or malaysian chinese who understand kelantanese dialect..many kelantanese can speak english..but they wont speak english if they think that you are malaysian..so next time..please tell them hello were are japanese cannot speak malay..they would automatically find someone to assist you..english is our second language..
ichang n jimmy, dont be too conscious of ur malay, we've heard/seen u speak malay, don't worry people won't laugh at u, people will laugh with u, n trust me they will appreciate ur efforts in trying sincerely to communicate in their mother tongue...so just go for it, if u ''malu, rugi nanti'', if u shy, u will lose out....hip! hip! hurrah! go jimmy & ichang....maju kehadapan...move forward n onward!!!🥰🥰🥰
if u want to order the exactly the same as someone else just say, ''saya nak order sama macam itu'' (i want to order same as that') n just point at what/who u want to follow. even i am a malay i do this, just point with ur fingers...that is the standard way of ordering in msia, point at the food u want or point athe menu what u want to order, just point, point, point, n to be polite use ur thumb instead to point, not forefinger!
You guys really tried the authentic Nasi Kerabu from Kelantan for your first time 😂 You will be haunted by the taste every single time you taste Nasi Kerabu from other states. They’re good but they could never rival Kelantanese version 🤤
The way both of you using hand to eat is already PRO! I followed your channel since you first using hand eating in Malaysia. Good job and continue exploring our cultures 🤍
I loveeeee how you two are freestyling the heck out of eating that nasi kerabu because that is exactly how one eats nasi kerabu! 😂 Also, the one trouble I face every time I'm buying nasi kerabu, I just don't know which 'lauk' to choose so, I end up buying more than 1 type of lauk, usually ayam and daging bakar. I'm sooo happy you guys got to enjoy nasi kerabu just like how we Malaysians do! ✨💯
I'm always craving for Malay food like nasi kerabu and nasi dagang. My mum always cook them when i was young. My Chinese friends couldn't understand why i love Malay food but i just know that they are very delicious.
I love nasi kerabu too... The best way to eat nasi kerabu is to mix everything..including budu and sambal. The taste will become complete. Next, please come to Terengganu ya 💖🌹 Neighbouring with Kelantan. Love to see iChang eating nasi using fingers, so neat. Good job!
This raya season I'm shocked most of the restaurants are open. However watching this make me homesick. I miss kelantan,the people and the food. Have a blast Ichang. There's so many hidden treasure in kelantan Don't stay in Kota Bharu only. The best restaurants are hidding in small village somewhere only the local knows.
As Malaysian n kelantanese, i am grateful and thanked both of yours for promoting our food n culture..ur guys did a great job...i will always support ur channel
Mmmm Sedap! You make me want to eat Nasi Kerabu. I feel like going Kelantan now. So many Yummy foods there! I am glad you enjoyed it, another great content and video from IChang and Jimmy. Thank You
💕 to see both of you again! 😻😻..Thanks for a great moment before at Pasar Tok Guru,Pengkalan Chepa.Truly missed you I-Chang & Jimmy.Till we meet again 😘😘 H've a nice trip buddies! 😊 👍 sincerely from - Abang Durian 😆😆😆 -
As a kelantanese .. who love japanese culture .. it so unique to see nihonjin trying one of kelantanese symbolic food .. this is like a fever dream for me 🗿
Naisu iChang, you just discover state of Malaysia is Kelantan. Kelantan is unique food you have never try yet. I'm proud both of you. Next time explore all state of Malaysia you never discover yet like Sabah and Sarawak because many more foods you don't know yet. That word 'Tumis' you say earlier means a dish of vegetables cooked in fat. I hope both of you can enjoy this country (Malaysia) like you did before in your own country.
Jiimmy really an expert in eating, he knows what to mix with to bring out the best taste with the dish. Btw I just eaten Nasi Kerabu for the first time 3 weeks ago, after I finish the meal I don't really like it but passable coz I'm not used to the taste, it taste herbal like you guys said and rate it 6/10, but the next day after my tastebuds acquired and adapt to the taste I change my ratings to 8/10, so delicious and will eat again. Sometimes you new to the flavour and not sure how to feel but it will take some time for you to adjust to the taste.
Same with me when trying sushi for the first time many years ago. After the 4th time I got hooked to it. Now, I have to eat sushi at least once a month. I could it eat every weekend but because it is quite expensive, I linit myself to eat it once or twice in a month.
That’s exactly how I felt, I used to dislike Nasi Kerabu because there is so much “greens”, then one day I had to eat it because I don’t have much money (during uni days) and my roommate bought an extra pack of Nasi Kerabu. The first time I tasted it, I felt a bit disgusted but after a few hours the lingering zestiness of the sambal and the saltiness of the coconut shreds coupled with the herba really had me going crazy over it.
Nasi kerabu ni pembuatannya susah, semua boleh masak atau jual tapi tak semua yg betul2 power 'air tangannya' even dekat Kelantan sendiri payah nk cari nasi kerabu yg betul2 sedap...tp kalau dah jumpa yg sedap memang ketagih 🤣
Nasi Kerabu....... Yaaaa..... Nice!!!.... 2 Japanese youtuber that have fallen in love with Malaysian cuisine....and travelling across the country to experience it ..... ICHANG & JIMMY are really killing it!!! SO hungry after watching this......
I love nasi kerabu. I will order in some of the local restaurants in KL if the nasi kerabu is available in the menu. I love the combination taste of the rice. 😍😍😋😋😋😋😍 Malaysia is food heaven. Variety.
So happy to see you guys eat almost a full set of nasi kerabu. You are missing pickled garlic. It's my favourite rather than solok lada. Btw solok lada aren't pickled pepper, but more of a steamed pepper with coconut plus fish plus santan. Nasi kerabu without side dishes relatively cheap, great and healthy for uni students. The more you add side dishes, the more expensive it can be.
i see more kuehs in Kelantan than any other states I've been to. Whenever we went back to Kelantan, my dad always brought home a lot of them. I notice that they have more of the unique ones rather than the standard kuehs you can find nationwide.
It's not pickled. The pepper was cut in half and filled in with the fish meat, shredded coconut and some black pepper. Then it will be steamed until cooked. Next time, try the kuih topi. ( a kuih shaped like a hat )
It's Kelantan, they have different accents than KL people. We also can't understand what they're saying. If you want them to be more helpful just say you guys are from Japan because they might be confuse you with Chinese
Now i know why God made us human with different cultures and backgrounds. It is so that we can enjoy these differences, best example would be food.. Seeing both of you enjoying nasi kerabu for the first time, reminds me of trying sashimi for the first time too. It's that feeling of trying some new food that is sooooo foreign to our original culture, i think that's the feeling that we all felt 😆.
Glad to see that you enjoy nasi kerabu, it's one of the must-eat no matter where you are. If you are having difficulty adding more dishes after your order, you can always say 'nak tambah ini satu' and point at the food item that you want. That way they will help to add one portion of whatever you are pointing at 🙂
One of the most authentic herbs for nasi kerabu is only found in Kelantan. If you buy nasi kerabu outside of Kelantan, you can't find the perfect combination of herbs as you find in Kelantan's Nasi Kerabu. And they normally don't charge you if you want an extra load of herbs.
I have tasted almost all Malay foods and dishes.. all of them are unique with its own taste based on province and location. but my favourite always to these five states Terengganu, Kelantan, Penang, Pahang and Melaka. Their rice and the side dishes are marvellous.
You miss one more condiment in Nasi Kerabu : pickled garlic. First step to eat Nasi Kerabu is MIX EVERYTHING then chomp! Chomp! Eat them. There are two type Nasi Kerabu at Kelantan: Nasi Kerabu tumis and Nasi Kerabu without tumis. be sure to try each if them iChang and Jimmy. I personally love both. Glad to see you guys enjoy Nasi Kerabu like me. I love Nasi Kerabu too.
Kerabu is actually a mix/salad of herbs and vegetable. Nasi Kerabu is rice + herbs and vegetables. The meat, fish, chicken are side dishes to complement the main dish. You will find different other types of Kerabu dishes without the rice. Most of other Kerabu dishes will mix with coconut. For example long beans (kacang panjang) + coconut + herbs, or kacang botol + coconut + herbs, or many other types with different mixes.
Fun fact: Nasi Kerabu is one of the healthiest dish in Malaysia. Recommended for anyone who want to diet by replacing Nasi Lemak with Nasi Kerabu for breakfast
We Kelantanese normally eat it lightly and the appreciation of the food deliciousness lingers for several weeks, maybe months. Never eat in combo like jimmy 🤭
I never thought I'd go to Kelantan and try the same thing as you guys have tasted. When my friend ordered the meals and I saw the solok lada, it suddenly reminded me of Jimmy enjoying the solok lada! To me, Nasi Kerabu is by far the healthiest malay dish I've ever tasted. The taste is just different 🤤🤤🤤 Keep it up!
Me as Kelantanese love Nasi Kerabu with ikan kembung goreng + solok lada + extra kerabu + telor masin sebiji + bawang jeruk + keropok keping. If add sambal lada, must add a bit lime in it, so that it taste spicy and sour a bit. Sambal lada Nasi Kerabu is not same as sambal belacan. Beside that, budu make Nasi Kerabu taste authentic, but need to know how to prepare it not only pouring it on Nasi Kerabu. And beware of adding gravy, dont add too much gravy because how we eat nasi kerabu not same as how we eat nasi kandar. Little gravy is ok, excessive gravy make nasi kerabu not taste good anymore.
Aarrgh.. you guys really make me miss my kampung arr.. i wish i wqs there so that i could show you all the great places to makan all the sedap food there… huahuahua 😢🫣🥹👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.. enjoy guys.. stay safe.. and do learn some Kelantan words ok hehe bereh..
Yayyyyy nasi kerabu!! It's my favourite dish of all time. If I can only eat one dish for the rest of my live, it will have to be nasi kerabu. 🤤 Hope you enjoy my hometown, Kelantan!
You went to the best place for nasi kerabu in KB.. Last time I was in KB I went there for 2 days straight.. So satisfied!! Definitely recommended!! You need to try kuih akok when you're in Kelantan!!
Love how you both are game to try and enjoy the local food in Malaysia. Have not had Nasi Kerabu before but will have to see if I can find a good one here in Singapore 😅. Thanks for sharing this experience with us!
@@kudin7149 usually the nice authentic nasi kerabu are found in pasar malams made by Kelantanese people. In JB I buy from pasar malam is very delicious. Try go to pasar malam in your area and look for Kelantan people selling Nasi Kerabu.
@@kudin7149 there are a lot of good authentic nasi kerabu made and sold by kelantanese in KL. I love the one sold at pasar malam Jln TAR. In Bangi/Kajang area, I like Wan Atiq's.
Dear Ichang, I m glad u tried and enjoyed Nasi Kerabu. I hv not eaten Nasi Kerabu since Jan 2022 due to my health issue.. You made my mouth watering ... and craving...🤤
@@somestranger2524 kena kurangkan mkn karbohidrat dan gluten krn masalah dlm usus. Semua jenis nasi saya tak boleh makan mcm dulu2... Terliur sgt tgk Nasi Kerabu yg ori yg Ichang mkn tu...
@@sueella7180 oh, diabetes + gluten allergy,eh? cer try tgk vid dr berg. die bnyk bg tips kesehatan. moga cepat sembuh,yer? nanti boleh makan nasi balik 🤲🤲🤲
the fish cracker is called keropok (or more accurately keropok keping, because there is another type of keropok which is keropok lekor). keropok keping and keropok lekor originate from terengganu and is very famous in pantai timur states (kelantan, terengganu, pahang) . i hope ichang and jimmy can try keropok lekor (fried and boiled version) soon the fried fish itself we call 'ikan celup tepung' or ICT for short (flour coated fish). also a famous local delicacy in pantai timur especially areas by the beach. if you go to any ICT restaurant they have a lot of other deep fried seafood other than just fish (prawns, squids, etc) . the types of fish used for ikan celup tepung are *usually* ikan kembung (mackerel) and ikan selayang (sardine)
jimmy & ichang, next time if u want to order water, u need to say 'air kosong'. Bcs if say 'air' alone, it's too general for them, need to be specific, eg: air sirap, air teh, air kosong etc :))
I think Kak ida thought you guys were malaysian Chinese 😂.... As nasi kerabu super fan i approve all those you eaten is the best combination for nasi kerabu... But... Sambal tumis should be added to the rice, not serve as dipping sauce 😂😂😂... I really enjoyed your eating experience 😋😋😋
I ove the way u make reaction about the food u eat..first reaction while eating..and second reaction after all food finish..and describe it all with passion.. 👍👍
9:43 I love that teh ais.. It comes with bubble means it was full heavily pull and the taste blended yummy 13:10 usually local will always choose one main dish.. Either ciken or kambing or fish.. But u guys had all. Hahaha that's really full. Job done 17:36 learning normal malay is easy but malay speaking wise, kelantan and ganu accents, penang accents, negeri sembilan accents, kedah accents will make u more fluent...
Thank you ichang for this video😆 the amount of support and positivity was incredib not to mention your willingness to experience our culture... THANK YOU from humble Kelantanese. ... THANK YOU
As a Kelantanese, I am happy that you've tried our favourite Nasi Kerabu (sort of mixed rice) with all the necessary dishes - fish, kambing (grilled goat meat), ayam (chicken), tumis (sort of a sauce), solok lada, the mixed ulam (mixed vegetable/salad), the fish cracker (papadom like) is actually known as "keropok" and most importantly "budu" (fish sauce). Unfortunately you have not tried "garlic pickles" (bawang putih jeruk) which you should next time. (I'm staying in KL actually - despite there are lots of Kelantan food here - nothing can beat the original. So whenever I return to Kelantan, I would be eating like you do - enjoying them so much) What I love about all your videos especially your experience in Kota Bharu, Kelantan was that you both appreciate food like art. Best of all, being thankful for the nice food. (There is another version of Nasi Kerabu in the North known as Nasi Ulam which is equivalently delicious. If you happen to be in Kedah, Langkawi or even Perlis, find Nasi Ulam.) There are so many more delicacies (food) and other kinds of food in Kelantan you haven't tried yet. But having Nasi Kerabu is like having Nasi Lemak. There is a pair to Nasi Kerabu - we call it Nasi Belauk (or nasi Berlauk) which originally consist of a kind of curry known as gulai (mostly with ikan tongkol - a kind of tuna) but totally different taste from curry with the sambal (a little hot) etc. Maybe you should try Nasi Berlauk as well. On the other hand, that being said, there have been some negative and unruly comments about Kelantan food from mostly tourist from the west which I dislike very much. I thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope you will return to Kelantan again. Whoever this Ajimo is, you've made me prouder of my homeland.
You have to try 'sup urat keting' near aeonmall kota bharu....i love that one...last time we drive 5 hours from alor setar just tu get that ' sup urat keting'
Ichang, Jimmy, when you finish traveling. Come live in Kelatan. The food is cheap and delicious , the cost of living is cheaper than other states in Malaysia. Nothing much in Kelate but you get to taste different food every day. Next, try Jeruk Maman dan ikan Bakar (Girlled fish) dan nasi.... So traditional. So authentic kampung food. Sedapnya.... Rindu Kelate
In my family, we have varieties of nasi kerabu, Nasi kerabu kampung/ darat, its white rice mix with all herbs and we use raw budu additional to the taste we put grind dried shrim and some lime juice or pamelo buds or shreded young mango, not everyone know this nasi kerabu even kelantanese them self, because this the oldest nasi kerabu type of all. Nasi kerabu biasa, its serve with blue or gray rice depend on what type of herbs you cooked the rice, its not just bunga telang we also can choose other herb to cook the rice with, its serve with herbs and sreve with cooked sweet budu. Nasi kerabu kuning/ tumis, its served with yellow rice, serve with herbs and sambal tumis, this one is the juicier compare to the other nasi kerabu and this one u nood need budu coz budu its are ready cooked with the sambal tumis. Back the my mom normally used at least 11 type of ulam for herb including bunga kantan, daun kesum, cucumber, bean sproud, pucuk gajus and more other exotic ulams. P/s: there is nasi kerabu siam to, it's like nasi kerabu biasa but serve with garlic pickle and the rice more likely look dark green cos it cook with a lot of herbs. I prefer nasi kerabu with beans sproud, coz with it feels like missing the freshness taste. Note, if u eat nasi kerabu make sure u mix all the rice and herbs well, thats how u Mastered in eating nasi kerabu.
The Siamese version is called Khao Jaam, Jaam being the Thai word for "Kerabu". The rice is cooked with the water derived from blending various herbs together. Original recipe uses about 100 types of herbs, if according to the elderly ladies. Later it was reduced to only 40+. Nowadays, most people but uses only a few very aromatic ones to keep the flavors intact. The rice, cooked with the herba juices, are so aromatic. Mixed with kerisik, various ulams and a dash of Budu then mixed them well. Have it with the keropok ikan and watermelon slices and OMG! It's so delicious you will forget you're still on Earth! 😂
@@chrisqck yes, remebered there is siam lady in tumpat kelantan made this recipes, her rice cook very aromatics, but her rice tend to come out green ish, se use a lot type of ulams (fresh herb)..... And also some times it serve with pink fried mee hoon.... The best.
U guys really enjoy kelantanese food and looks happy. Their food never failed to impress me. Everytime I'm back to my hometown, i always eat kelantanese food as much as I can. Because it would never be the same with outside from Kelantan.
Sebagai rakyat malaysia yang tak makan nasi kerabu, tapi nasi kerabu kedai ni nampak sedapppp 😂😂😂 mgkin nasi kerabu belah selatan tak sama mcm belah timur
Betul tu,nasi kerabu di Johor susah nak jumpa yg sedap ada lah satu dua tempat selama saya duk di Johor tapi di KL ramai org Kelate berniaga masakan kelate yg sedap sedap
U can remove the solok lada seed to make it less spicy before eating….and yes Kelantan is heaven for sweet lovers…..Hope u enjoy eid-Al adha in Kelantan
There are 2 types of nasi kerabu.. one the yellow rice & another one is blue rice.. Yellow one usually the have tumis(like gulai gravy) more moist Blue one usually don’t have..usually bit dried from yellow one.. Azma nasi kerabu is my favourite restaurant..located in pasir pekan
The original blue color is from the telang flower. But nowadays, certain seller use coloring. This telang flower is good to enhance human fertility. Checkout AZi YANi channel for detail cooking rice using bunga telang. One of the famous nasi kerabu stall is at ketereh. How to eat? Mixed well all kerabu (mix raw vege) with rice, tumis and budu. Haha... It will blend well the taste! There are 2 version, some got "tumis" and some dont hv "tumis". The complete set should have 'jeruk bawang putih". The kerabu should have "bunga kantan" as well. Both jeruk bawang putih and bunga kantan will give a natural sour taste. Some also add fish floss and black pepper powder. You should try while u r here 😋
Ichangggg. I always waited to see u guys reaction while eating nasi kerabu. Thisss is one of my favvv. Really happy to see u guys enjoy it.. hope to see uguys eat more n more kelantan’s food.. next you can try nasi dagang, kerabu mangga and many kind of kerabu, nasi campur kelantan, maggi belut 💕💕
If you love ulam, do what I normally do, 'ulam lebih, kak! ' (translation: extra ulam). Mixed herbs consist of daun kesum, bunga kantan, long bean, bean sprout etc)
Can't wait to see you in Terengganu. Terengganu and Kelantan isn't too far away and I would recommend you to try out the nasi dagang, nasi minyak and nasi lemak with sambal kerang. It is a little sweeter, but the seafood there is equally fresh and tasty. (But don't eat the seafood in sashimi form haha) Recommend that you also try the nasi kerabu in Terengganu too. Very different from the ones in Kelantan and other parts of Malaysia. Just like ramen. The regional food in different parts of Malaysia is different due to the different preferences in taste and flavours.
I think that pepper of solok lada is very special because it rarely found outside of kelantan region. The spiciness maybe came from the seed, for me it's sweet. And it is not picked the color is always that faint green. And that fish celup tepung looks very crispy 😍😍😍
yes, it's different kinda cili hijau. it's lighter in color. almost neon green. and it's kinda sweet. the normal cili hijau like those at the mamak's is darker in color, and kinda pahit. The chinese also use ths Lada solok for their pickled pepper (cili jeruk)
