Fish that was sweet and sour was originally a cheap street food that was sold at hawker stalls in Malaysia. Chinese cuisine has a huge influence on Malaysian cuisine. Fish cooked in a sweet-and-sour sauce is a common meal in Malay households. Consequently, some Chinese restaurants even add a few variations by using better quality fish and cooking it with suitable garnishing in a restaurant style.

Malaysia has a diverse range of customs to learn about. Every Malaysian state has its own unique story to share. I am a Malaysian from the sta te of Sabah. My husband is also a Kota Belud Sabahan.

WHAT’S FOR DINNER is the most asked question in my house! Sometimes dinner is hard to put together and we are always wondering about things to eat for the next meal. At the end of the day exhaustion often pushes you over the edge and into a drive-thru window....   TRUST me, this creamy lemon butter garlic shrimp is a delicious, quick, and easy meal that you need to include in your weeknight dinner meal plan. Shrimp is a go-to for super-fast meals because they cook so quickly.   Lemon garlic butter sauce is tangy, buttery, and creamy.

It is a great sauce to serve with fish and seafood, chicken, and pork.   It's ready in 10 minutes with simple ingredients. You will wonder where this incredible sauce has been all your life.
