One of the most delicious dishes I’ve had as a fan of curry though I’ve only ever eaten it at a Malaysian restaurant and not homemade.
This is a pretty normal aesthetic for food in South and South East Asia so it looks amazing to me…Seems like the appearance of food is very culturally subjective.
I mean, it looks like any Indian or curry dish, in terrible lighting. I’m sure something could be added to make the color more appealing. And yeah, that plate looks nasty.
I am by no metric an expert, hell I am barely proficient, as I found a recipe online after I got back from Malaysia, but it’s somewhat simple. It just takes a lot of time and a lot of ingredients that isn’t easy to find where I live.
That is the problem I find with a lot of more complex Asian dishes. It’s impractical to stock a bunch of ingredients for 1 meal that I otherwise won’t use for anything else. Obviously got soy sauce and curry powder though.
But I have loads of rosemary and sage as that grows in my garden. Goes nicely with roast potatoes.
Rendang
Used to eat it as often as I could when I visited southeast asia
That plating in particular looks like a stainless steel prison toilet
That’s how it’s traditionally served.
Its in a wok.

Is it easy to make?

It reminds me a bit of the “mud porridge” that we liked to make in a concave tree stump in the schoolyard when I was in preschool.
