Otak-otak Muar
Malaysia · Southeast Asia
Oriental Cuisine’s recipe combines mackerel paste with shallots, garlic, chillies, lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, candlenuts and toasted belacan shrimp paste. Thick coconut milk and cornstarch are mixed into the seasoned fish.[1]
The mixture is sandwiched between strips of atap palm leaf, with banana leaf offered as an alternative. The secured packets are grilled on a wire rack over a low fire.[1]
