Ever heard of keto-friendly nasi lemak? Well, the unofficial Malaysian national dish is now that, in a brilliant blue. Crumbed cauliflower substitutes rice to give the dish a natural sweetness, infused with creamy coconut and aromatic pandan. Dig also into tender chicken sizzled in tumeric, tangy mustard and salt. And for a true-blue nasi lemak experience, add sambal, lots of it. You can also replace chicken with sambal squid.
