Peranakans are most famous for their imaginative and creative curries infused with delicate flavours, indigenous herbs and spices uniquely blended to create truly amazing taste experiences.
Lingham’s Malaysian Curry Pastes are crafted in a meticulous manner because as on old Peranakan Proverb says ‘For ordinary people, food is heaven!’.
LINGHAM’S MALAYSIAN KAPITAN CURRY PASTE
Some would say that Kapitan Curry is the BIG BOSS or Captain of all Malaysian curries with many local chef’s creating their own individual taste combinations!
Kapitan curry is considered a Peranakan dish (Peranakan is a culture that arose from the fusion of Chinese and Malay traditions in areas of what is now Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia).
All Peranakan recipes require time consuming preparation, especially with the grinding of the rempah’s (or spice pastes), typically made from fresh and dried chillies, garlic, shallots, candlenut, fermented shrimp paste and lemon grass.
LINGHAM’S MALAYSIAN PENANG WHITE CURRY PASTE
Penang White Curry is uniquely Penang, and was made popular by the Cantonese food hawkers.
The deliciously complex flavours of galangal, lemongrass and nutmeg is no secret but what makes it truly exceptional depends on the art of blending the spices and cooking it to the right consistency.
Peranakan recipes are handed down from one generation to the next, and because of the time consuming preparation of the rempah’s it is a cuisine that is often at its very best, when served at home.
