Belacan Fried Rice is one of my favorite Fried Rice. If I eat out, it would cost me RM4.00 per plate. So today I decided to fry my own Nasi Goreng Belacan.

The ingredient is simple:
Shallots
Anchovies
Belacan
Bird Eye Chili (Cili Padi)

Must pound, cannot blend. If you blend, it will be too fine and when frying the aroma won’t be strong/nice.
Fry a tablespoon of mince garlic the add the above pounded ingredient. Fry till the Belacan aroma cucuk your lubang hidung (comes up).

Then add whaveter topping that you like. As for me, I only have carrot, eggs and crab sticks in my fridge. So that’s all I used.
I start with carrots, then salt to taste follow by eggs. Once the egg is fried, I add the crab sticks. Stir it a while then add the rice. Mix it well, add in a dash of dark soy sauce.
You are done.
Serve with fried shallots and sprinkle some pepper.
Best eaten with more slice chili padi in light soy sauce.
That’s our dinner today.
