I had this for lunch just now and packed some for dinner too.

I tried Udang Lemak Nenas in a few famous Nyonya restaurant in town; none can beat my mom’s. I am not bias; even friends that tried my mom’s Udang Lemak Nenas agree to it. Don’t believe, buzz me when you are coming to Malacca, I get my mom to cook for you.

I tried once but did not turn out as good as my mom’s; mine looks very pale. See also no appetite to eat.

I blog about Udang Lemak Nenas recipe last year but no picture of it. So here’s the picture and click on any link in this post to check out the recipe.

This is a typical Nyonya food. Prawn plus Pineapple cooked in coconut milk. This is my favorite; I will usually eat them with fried salted fish. Sometimes when there are no prawns, my mom will replace it with salted fish. (must get the ikan sepat masin).

Ingredients:
(A)
1 Pineapple sliced it 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch around 0.5cm thickness.
Coconut Milk from 1 Coconut. One bowl from the 1st squeeze (thick) and another 2nd squeeze (diluted).

(B)
10 Dried Chilli
10 Shallots
0.5 inch Fresh Turmeric
1 inch Belacan
Some Anchovies

Blend the above (B).

Methods:
Bring to boil the thick coconut milk then add in ingredient (B). Let it boil for 10 minutes. Then add in the ingredient (A) plus sugar and salt to taste.

You are done. Simple right.

FYI, I only tried this once!
